I'm working on creating a new lathe-turning simulation using RoboDK, but I've hit a roadblock. The lathe CAD models I need aren't available in the RoboDK online library, and I don't have access to the CAD models elsewhere. I tried editing an existing machine in the library, but it seems that option isn't available.

                   

My setup involves two lathe machines with a robotic arm placed between them. The arm is responsible for taking the part, inserting it into one of the lathe machines for turning, and then placing the finished part into a tray.

I also need to incorporate specific dimensional constraints into the lathe simulation. Could you please provide guidance on how to achieve this?

One additinal information i don't have any robodk liceance.I plan to create an environment using a trail version of robodk, and after that, I will use our institution's licensed robodk for turning operations.

I read the "Create a Mechanism or a Robot" topic in the "General Tips". But it requires the CAD model of the lathe to define the motions.

You can load the 3D models of the machine or mechanism you want to create in RoboDK.
