Hello everyone,

I need help. I want to make mechanism of a 90 deegres curved conveyor. Is it possible to make something like that in RoboDK? I would be very grateful if someone would provide an example.

Thank You!

This is currently not possible unless you use the RoboDK API at this moment.

@Phillip may be able to help you model your conveyor, could you provide us with the 3D model?

Hello DKeretic,

Here is a example on how you can run a curved conveyor using a bit of python. Lemme know if you have any questions.

I'm not able to run the program. When I click run nothing happens.

Hi DKeretic,

I just try the conveyor Oliver sent you and it works fine on my end.

You need to run the "Main".
Also, make sure that your Python is set properly. ("Tools"->"Options"->"Python"->"Python interpreter"->"Select").
Also, make sure that you are using the latest version of RoboDK. ("Help"->"Check for updates")

One more question from me. Is it possible to add curve path in RoboDK and then make step file object follow that path?

[Olivier]

Hi DKeretic,

One way to do it is to create a 6 axis mechanism and make it follow the curve with the object. This solution only work with one object at the time, unless you create multiple 6 axis mechanisms.
