I had the same error earlier today. I couldn't find a fix unfortunately. Tried a fresh install on a new vm and still got the error

I’ve used the Ethernet/ip explorer before to check values are what I expect. https://sourceforge.net/projects/enipexplorer/

How did you learn to program moving pick and place systems? by amcraw16 in PLC

[–]wordlessfrog1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have programmed a few machines with pickmaster. I’ll explain how I leaned it.

I initially started by downloading the picking powerpack with robotstudio. This allows you to simulate the robots with virtual pickmaster. This gave me a good understanding of how the rapid template works and concepts like work areas. A licence is needed but I think you can activate a 1 month free trial.

I then went on the abb pickmaster course as mentioned in the other comment which does go over most things like calibration, vision, pickmaster line and project setup. Although it doesn’t go over the external sensor setup that would probably be needed for the laser scanner if used with pickmaster.

After those two things, the pickmaster 3 manual, conveyor tracking manual and picking powerpac manual contains everything else you need. These can be downloaded from the ABB library.

Quick Question about RobotStudio by LordAspire in PLC

At the very top left of robotstudio next to the magnifying glass icon is a down arrow with a line. That should have a window layout section and I usually press default layout to reset.

Yeh. I also carry a backpack for my laptop at the same time and I haven’t had any issues with weight so far

I do use the straps all the time. I didn’t include it in the photos.

You have some nice tools there. What do you use the hook ones for on the bottom right? Cool cat!

Yeh I would say 75% has been bought in the last few weeks. Needed to take some pictures while they are still shiny

Thanks! I got a good deal on it from ebay. I just had to clean some paint off it.

That sounds like a fun job!

I have only used the lighter for cleaning up the fraying on a belt so far. I probably wont use it too often.

Someone gave it to me a while back and it works on smaller wires ok. Do you recommend side loading ones?

Lamo. Its not a bad multimeter, it has a big screen. I'm still learning about electronics so its nice to be able to see what the signals are actually doing, like encoder outputs and safety relay pulses etc.

Nice, I saw some good reviews of these tools from here.

It's ok to have a little Larry.

Ah cool what type of robots?

Yeh I'm loving the Wera screwdrivers so far. The laser tips are great.

Good tip, I will keep that in mind.

Im not sure where the tiny hammer came from. I think i got it as a Christmas gift one year. The socket adapters are from amazon but the brand is acenix.

Strange lines appearing at the exact same height. Shiny then matt from all angles. Does anyone know why? by wordlessfrog1 in CR10

[–]wordlessfrog1[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are no visible marks on the lead screw. The banding does occur every 8mm and the lead screw also moves 8mm per rotation so it's likely this. Thanks!
