Key Points

• The door don't need to be automated as the robot can close it itself.
• If more than one setup for 1 part, you can have jigs inside the CNC to help with the manipulation.
• Notice that the final position of the part is set by a tool on the CNC turret. This way you don't need to use external signal to call the closing of the chuck.
• Notice also the use of custom fingertips on the Robotiq gripper.
