Robot Manipulation

Creating Positions Recording positions uses the absolute coordinate system. In order to record a position the robot has to be moved to the desired position first. The following slide demonstrates how to record a position.

Creating Positions Teaching positions uses the relative coordinate system. In order to teach a position there must be an existing position to work from. Use the expanded teach menu to define the relative position. The robot does not have to be moved. The following slide demonstrates how to record a position.

Programming Pick and Place Plan ahead by creating a sketch of the robots path. Include position numbers in the sketch. The following slide is an example.
