Following a random path using force sensor

mamara

Hi,

We see many solutions on youtube that the robot is following random path when using force control, is this a built in feature ? or we need to program it from scratch ? here is an exemple of the videos :

Thank you

You can do similar things with Universal Robot eSerie and force control software Copilot.

In the video you show the robot have the rough trajectory of the hand contour and make position adjustment from this trajectory using force sensing.

You can check our elearning videos to learn more about it:

• Multipoint path https://elearning.robotiq.com/course/view.php?id=7&section=6

What would you like to do ?

Thank you for your reply, I will take those courses to better understand the features

It's about deflashing parts that have complex shape, the robot has to follow the edge while monitoring the force applied 

Thank you
