What's trending on DoF this week? Incremental moves, ROS alternatives, automated laser scanning inspection, reducing the use of subprograms, and much more. Get the latest news from automation Pros!

Take a look at this awesome time lapse showcasing the final result of the robot with our Robotiq Gripper in action.

How Can I Avoid Using 600 Subprograms in My Main Program?

Kakimmy needs your expertise! She's looking to pre-code all her part's waypoints and camera locates in one UR program, and call the right waypoints and camera locates based on the parts in her current batch. How can she do that without 600 subprograms? Do you have a solution for Kimberly?
