Page 137: Move Condition
Cartesian space, axial motion may exceed its maximum speed and acceleration limits. It is highly recommended to perform offline simulation verification first. ©2015-2019 AUBO.All rights reserved.
Page 138: Type Of Move
TCP’s moving path, this movement type is a good choice. Move Joint applies for the enough space and moves by the fastest way. As shown below. Figure 11-15 Move Joint track ©2015-2019 AUBO.All rights reserved.
Page 139: Move Line
Maximum acceleration of motor (added speed per second) is 20000rpm/s. ➢ The joint’s speed is motor speed / speed ratio. The speed ratio of Joint 1~6 in AUBO-i3 is 101. ➢ Whether a joint can reach and keep maximum speed is determined by the joint displacement and the maximum acceleration parameters.
Page 140: Move Track
Use three-point method to determine the arc and follow a sequence move from start waypoint to end waypoint. It belongs to Cartesian space trajectory planning. Pose changes only influenced by the start point ©2015-2019 AUBO.All rights reserved.
Page 141 Note that the beginning and end of the curve cannot be closed. Example Insert a move and set the four waypoints as shown below (1, 2, 3, 4). After running the program, the B- spline curve runs as shown in the following figure. ©2015-2019 AUBO.All rights reserved.
Page 142: Waypoint
Waypoint Waypoint is an important part of the AUBO i series of robot programs. It represents the point at which the robot end will arrive. Usually the motion track at the end of the robot consists of two or more waypoints.
