    Project Mike's 6 Axis Denso Robot

    Hi All,


    I managed to get my hands on a 1999 Denso VS-6354CM robot, RC3-V6A controller, and teach pendant for less than $400 from an industrial surplus supplier back in Jan 2022. It has the...

    Project Re: Mike's SCARA Robot

    Thanks jwatte,

    I was problem solving down multiple avenues to get the motors on this robot working, and this ended up being the path of least resistance for me. The motors at full speed generate a...
  4. Re: Inverse Kinematics of a Open-loop chain (SCARA robot arm)

    Hello mouradsme,

    The world of kinematics is a deeper rabbit hole than you might realize at first. Forward kinematics (I know the joint angles, where is the end of my robot?) for a robot are...

    Project Mike's SCARA Robot

    Hi All,

    I don't post here often but thought some might enjoy the project I've been working on since the beginning of COVID. I am an engineer, amateur machinist, and robotics enthusiast. I was...

    Very very cool stuff in ROS. I have never messed around with anything like that, but maybe it is time for a new project, again :)
  7. Question(s) Re: New Member - Interested in retrofitting an industrial robot for hobby

    Huh, I have to think about what you're describing. Sounds like using simulation software running on a computer and outputting the data in real-time to a microcontroller for interfacing to servos....

    LloydF

    1) I've heard about it, that's about it. If you care to share what it is then I'm interested!

    2) Preferably not build (although I certainly could if I changed my mind). I would like to...
  9. Question(s) Re: New Member - Interested in retrofitting an industrial robot for hobby

    Jwatte,

    I had initially looked into building my own from scratch, however to have an actuator with a useful payload and decent positioning accuracy looked to necessitate harmonic drive or...

    Hi All,

    I tried posting this once, it looks like it didn't go through. Sorry if this is double posted, this is my first post on this forum!

    I graduated from college a few years ago having...
