ZA6 Industrial Robot
​
The ZA6 robot is controlled via PathPilot™, Tormach’s award-winning CNC user interface. The underlying trajectory planning and motion control is handled by ROS, an opensource robot operating system with tens of thousands of active developers worldwide. Access to the underlying code is provided to all customers, allowing participation in the range of research opportunities offered by the ROS ecosystem.
​
Features
-
PathPilot™ user interface - PathPilot is user-friendly, making programming easier and faster to learn. Learn how to create robot programs with minimal effort. Similar layout to PathPilot interface on other Tormach CNC machines. Familiarity with PathPilot on one piece of equipment allows users to go between Tormach CNC equipment even more intuitively. Also includes a web-based user interface simulator.
-
Powered by ROS (Robot Operating System) - The most popular platform for robotics research (over 4,000 academic papers cite “ROS: an opensource Robot Operating System” (Quigley et al., 2009)).
-
Robust industrial hardware - The Tormach robot is an industrial tool that’s been made exceptionally easy to use. It utilizes solid metal casting, servo motors and drives, and harmonic gear reducers.
​
Robot programs are written in Python:
​
-
For beginners or for writing simple programs, PathPilot includes an intuitive, graphical, block-based programming system called “conversational.”
-
The visual block-based programs are actually Python underneath, so when your program is ready for the next level, you can continue coding directly in Python without rewriting from scratch
-
-
For users familiar with Python, robot programs are easy to understand and modify
-
Python users can easily extend robot programs to interact with the file system or the outside world. For example:
-
Import time, time.sleep(.5) to delay an action 0.5 seconds
-
Import csv, with open(‘eggs.csv’, ‘rb’) as csv file to read in position values from a csv file, or write out values to a csv file
-
Import usb.core, usb.util, more complex python code here to read data from a USB scale to use the robot to measure the weight of an object
