I'm working to intergrate robot arm automations in a tissue culture lab and this kind of stuff is a huge help, if not direct help then at the least inspiration. Instant sub!
I need to start posting some of my projects, i did all my integration as well, my okuma lathe is one of the next ones on my list, but i think a 5 axis is going to get it first. Im working on having my ur3 do a burr beaver operation now, and i may incorporate this as well. Thanks and keep up the good work
Nice work! Just noticing the cart face seems like it is raw aluminum, I wouldn't bet that if your parts are even made out of mild steel that you wont start wearing the surface of plate which you have the sandpaper affixed to. Depends on volume, material, relative force, etc but you might start dishing out that area and might cause you issues. I say might because being in the industry I have seen and done some rather hokey things that absolutely do work and never presume I know best. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and what you're learning as you go!
Cool demonstration man! As far as the setup and integration of the cobot to the lathes goes, did you do all of that yourself or did you have any professional assistance? Could you point me to any resources you found as far as integration goes? I've watched a few of your other cobot videos like the one with the auto door hookup and was curious if you pulled the whole project off yourself or not. Thanks in advance!
Haha glad you like it. Yes, I design, plan, and integrate every project I have done (working on #5 now). I've had help a few times when connecting machine I/O, welding bases, and getting ideas on how good material flow would look for a project. Lack of resources is why I started posting about my projects. There are videos out there but not many that dive deep.
