End position from the Base Frame (P1):
(X = 0, Y = 0, Z = -800, Rx = 180
, Ry = 0, Rz = 0)
Tool Frame Offsets:
(Tx =50, Ty = 0, Tz = 150, TRx = 0, TRy = 0, TRz = -90
)
End position with Tool Frame (P2):
(X = 50, Y = 0, Z = -950, Rx = 180
, Ry = 0, Rz = 90 )
Refer to the manufacturer CAD drawings or datasheet to find relevant Tool
Offset values for the tool.

This illustration shows an example of using the Tool Frame in Pick & Place
applications. The custom tooling with three grippers (1, 2 and 3) is attached at the
end of 4-axis Delta robot. Each gripper is picking an object (1, 2, 3…6), placed at
different orientations from the moving conveyor and then putting them in to a
box with same orientations.
Each gripper is programmed as a separate tool and tool frames is associated with it.
All three TCP positions are measured using the tool offset values shown in the
