We just announced RoboDK TwinTool. TwinTool allows you to automatically calibrate robot tools (TCP).

You can find more information here:

Is Robot Holds Object project also suitable to use TwinTool to calibrate its Wobj?
I read https://robodk.com/doc/en/Robot-Automati...l#TwinTool , and found the TwinTool App download link was not activated.
I'm with Professional license; how could I upgrade the license for TwinTool?

Good question... for remote TCP setups (when the robot holds the part) you may need to have a more complex setup where you calibrate 3 points with respect to your flange. These 3 points could define the location of your part with respect to the robot flange.

It is better if you contact us by email so we can work with you to find a solution that works for you.

Hi,

This is really a good news to automate the calibration of the TCP,

Could you please provide the brand and model of the compatible sensors ?

Best regards

We currently support these sensors:

• Keyence
  
• Mitutoyo
  
• Sylvac
  
• Neoteck 
  

We support most interfaces that can be connected to a PC, such as USB, Ethernet/IP and RS232. The hardware cost is around 1500 EUR for any of these gage sensors.

• Mitutoyo 542-191 - LG 100 gage
  
• Mitutoyo 542-081A - EJ Counter + AC
  
• Mitutoyo 21HZA149 - USB interface (RS232 also supported)
  
• 25 mm flat contact point with M2.5x0.25 thread needed (not provided by Mitutoyo)
  

Sample Keyence order:

• Keyence GT2-P12 - Pencil type gage
  
• GT2-UB1 - USB connection unit
