Discovering the 6 axes of the NED2 Robotic Arm

The student discovers the concept of the 6 axes and how it applies to Ned2.

In this exercise, the Ned2 robotic arm will be used to move an object, and will be positioned in a singularity.

Laboratory Content

Required equipment

Ned 2
Adaptative gripper (or other)
NiryoStudio

Setup

1. Place the Ned2 robotic arm on a table.
2. The Ned2 robotic arm must have an obstacle-free perimeter of approximately 60 centimeters in radius.
3. Connect the Ned2 robotic arm to the NED2 robotic arm safety box.
4. Connect the safety box of the NED2 robotic arm to the power supply of the NED2 robotic arm.
5. Connect the power supply of the NED2 robotic arm to the electrical network.
6. Connect the Ned2 robotic arm to NiryoStudio.
