      Understanding benefits - Advanced collision avoidance

      Context

      The robot's operation area should be kept clear of obstacles whenever possible to ensure optimal performance. For tight or cluttered layouts however, activating "advanced collision avoidance" can be used to improve feasibility without custom programming.

      Validate feasibility

      To test feasibility with the Configurator, follow these steps:

      1. Access the layout window depending on the Configurator method being used.
        • For single 3D projects, click LAYOUT on the main screen.
        • For multi-recipe projects, click CREATE LAYOUT on step 2 (Lines). If this option is not visible, please ensure "Obstacles" is activated in COLUMNS.
      2. Add one (or more) obstacles in reference to the Palletizing Solution and accept the changes.
      3. Run the simulation depending on the Configurator method being used.
      4. If no solution is found, access the layout window again and check "Enable advanced collision avoidance".

      Export JSON of obstacle(s)

      (Intended for advanced users only)

      1. On the layout menu, click the "copy" button to transfer the JSON to system memory.
      2. Move the copied JSON to the Urcap and configure per the existing procedure.
