Robot collision

Hi team,

There is a way to detect collision in a robot arm and "abort" the task if the robot have a "collision" with any 3D shape?


thx

@raul.v3,

I don't think the Robot detects its location relative to other objects in the model. But, you could maybe create a zone around the robot to detect collisions, or use the "Collisions" feature. Have you tried either of these?

What is it that you're trying to model?

Hi Tanner,


Thanks for the quick response.


Where i can see in the release 20.2.2? There is a way to change the "properties view" like the old version 20.1.3 in order to see it like the above image that you share me?

Could be possible to have an example of the robot collision that you are referring please?


thx a lot

R.V

check this link.

from the FlexSim 2020 Update 2, the old slow Collision checking mechanism has been removed and replaced with a new Agent module that can be used for proximity detection. The new Agent module can add multiple selected objects at once through its UI.
