| + | This was my primary responsibility for 5 years at my previous employer. It began when they bought a complete robot integration for the first robodrill. I was tasked with copying the installation across several different models of robodrill for a total of 5 installations. I started by diagramming the electronic and pneumatic systems as well as gathering specifications for each component. I copied the design of the table and subcontracted it to a local fabricator. The actual design, acquisition, | ||

| + | * don't be afraid to change things even when you were tasked with copying something | ||
| + | * having robots of multiple generations massively increases the programming overhead | ||
| + | * spec. rounded corners on tables, working around a cobot is pretty safe unless you smash into a pointed corner | ||
| + | * cobots have a lot of precision but looser clearances are desirable where possible to allow for easier setup | ||
| + | * vises should have sensors for position so that you can detect dropped material | ||
| + | * sensors are more reliable than operator input | ||
| + | * offline programming is much more efficient than programming on the robots | ||
