H-Bot

H-Bot 1:

The H-Bot is built up as shown in the schema above.

The motor axes have to be scaled in mm representing the cable length at each side of the TCP. To calculate the transformation the relative cable movements are sufficient and no absolute cable lengths are needed.

The origin of the machine coordinate system is defined by the point where the position of both motors is zero.

Parameter for kinematics

Parameter

Description

Unit

MCS2WCS OID

Object ID of a static transformation which defines the position of MCS in base coordinate system (normally WCS).

 

Parameter for dynamic model

Parameter

Description

Unit

FirstDriveTorqueOID

Object ID of the first drive torque
If motors and gear boxes for all motors behaves similar, all drive torques can be represented by one OID. So both parameters refer to the same object ID.

 

SecondDriveTorqueOID

Object ID of the second drive torque

 

GravityOrientationOID

Object ID of a static transformation that describes the mounting orientation. This parameter is used if the gripper does not show to the ground. The static transformation’s Z-axis defines the gravity orientation. If the robot is mounted as shown in the picture this OID can be zero.
