2.6 Synchronize with hydraulic press using recorded profile
2.6.1. Introduction
Overview
This section describes how to use a recorded machine profile to improve the accuracy of
robot’s synchronization with a hydraulic press. This profile is used for modeling of press path.
Not using a recorded profile will require a bigger distance between robot and press model
when teaching the path.
Principles of hydraulic press synchronization
1. Record the movement of the hydraulic press.
2. Activate the record to be used in the next cycle.
3. Activate the sensor synchronization with the RAPID instruction
SyncToSensor.
