Hello Annin.

 

I am looking to add a gripper which is larger than the one you have in your video.

 

On/when auto calibrated, the gap between the arms and the J6 housing is much too small for this gripper.

How do I adjust the auto calibrate function such that it doesn't crush the gripper and still calibrate?

 

alternatively, is it possible to auto calibrate J1 - J4 first, then go to comfortable position and then calibrate J5 & J6? That way, the gripper doesn't get crushed.

 

thanks

Hello, I have had a few requests for the same thing. I plan to create the ability to write a short program to calibrate joints in whatever order you need to to avoid crashing the gripper. I’m quite busy at the moment as I have excepted a new job and I’m moving out of state but as soon as I can and have some free time I will start working on that. Thank you

Hi Chris,

 

I had the very same question as Peter, because I bought gripper MHF2-12D1, which is slightly bigger than 8D1. Do you have any progress wrt that?

 

PS: Congrats for the AR3, very nice, clean design.

 

Regards:Janos
