Connect IRC5 - Taco

Hello,I am new and experimenting with Taco ABB. I usually work on Kuka Robots. I wanted to know if somebody have documentations to connect and send code from the grasshopper code to the IRC5…Continue

Hello,

Firstly, thank you very much for the work you've done for Taco. It works perfectly with an IRC 5. However, I have a question. I've established a new company called Waxxx3d and am planning to use an Omnicore E10 Bay with an ABB IRB 1300. Do you know if your plugin is compatible with it?

Looking forward to your reply.

Best regards,

Hello,

Thank you for your plug-in, this is great.

I would like to know, if it's possible to control the robot in real time with Taco. If yes, is it possible to egt a definition.

Best,

AT

Hi Federico,

attached is a TACO definition with the robot arm geometry as an output on the SOLVER component. You can use it to do your animation with custom display.

Cheers,

Hello,

Thank you for your plug-in is really useful.

At the moment i am doing simulation with ABB robots using TACO and I was wondering if it is possible to change the color of the Robot after I sent the target plane. I don't know how to access the geometry once I pass it trough the inverse kinematic solver.

Hello!  Is anyone out there currently using TACO with an ABB 2600?

Or rather; Is there anyone out there using TACO?
