For example if we create a linear axis : the base shift do a transformation and translation to the base, and end effector shift do a transformation and translation to the resul'ts base



But i don't think that the same thing is happening when we try create a gripper, like event that we supposde to have the same settings, but there is no change in the orientation



Also in this example, i can't understand where i should put my base frame, and i don't how it's orientation affect the translation along x and y, abd what is the difference between Fb and Ft, and why in the video the instructor positioned the base reference in Ft, and what does d1 and d2 mean and the same for d1,d2 and a1,a2



I didn't find answers to all of this in the youtube videos nor in the documentation so can please anyone from the robodk team explain me more about how create mechanisms, and explain me where to put the refrence fram, how i should orientate it, the base shift and end effector, and how to know where is the direction of the movement. And also if possible how can i understand all of this from the image that appears when we open the tab that let us create the mechanism]]>

System Setup

• RoboDK version: 5.8.0
  
• Licence: RoboDK Education
  
• Robot controller: KUKA KRC4
  
• Driver: kukabridge with C3 Bridge
  
• Robot IP: 10.213.120.125
  
• Port: 7000
  
• FTP path configured in RoboDK: C:/kukashared
  

Problem Description
I can sometimes establish a connection with the robot, and RoboDK shows the connection status as Connected/Ready. The Get Position function also works and retrieves the robot's actual position.
However, when I try to execute a program using Run on Robot, the following errors appear in the RoboDK log:

• Error (unable to set new tool)
  
• Error (unable to set new pose)
  
• Disconnected (socket error) — this appears during some connection attempts.
  

Troubleshooting Already Tried

1. Checked the robot IP address and communication port.
   
2. Confirmed that the robot can respond to RoboDK's Get Position command.
   
3. Checked the tool and reference-frame settings in the RoboDK station.
   
4. My program contains:
   • Set Reference Frame: KR8 Base
     
   • Set Tool: Torch_TCP
     
   • MoveJ to KR8_home
     
   • Call Path1
     
   • MoveJ to KR8_home
     
5. Created a copy of the program and removed the Set Tool instruction for testing, but the unable to set new pose error still occurred.
   
6. I could not find a RoboDKsync program/file on the KUKA controller.
   

Questions

1. Does the kukabridge driver with C3 Bridge require a separate synchronization program or any additional KUKA-side configuration?
   
2. If a controller-side program is required, where can I obtain the correct version for RoboDK 5.8.0 and how should it be installed manually?
   
3. What could cause unable to set new tool and unable to set new pose when Get Position works correctly?
   
4. Are there any specific settings for tool data, base frames, or Cartesian coordinates that I should verify on the KUKA controller?
   

I would appreciate step-by-step guidance for troubleshooting and configuring the connection manually. This setup is for educational use.

We use RoboDK's online driver to control a FANUC CRX-30iA. The issue occurs intermittently: the RoboDK model sometimes jumps to an implausible pose, and a move may stop with an error. The motion paths do not pass near singularities, and the physical robot can execute them without issue. The issue occurs sporadically during prolonged, repeated operation and cannot be reproduced on demand.

Environment

• RoboDK: v5.9.2.25331 (Professional license); Windows 11 Pro 24H2
  
• Physical robot: FANUC CRX-30iA
  
• RoboDK model: FANUC CRX-25iA. We use it because the CRX-30iA model's axis movements did not match the physical robot. It is unclear whether this difference is related to the reported issue.
  
• Network: isolated Ethernet via a hub/switch; no Internet connection
  
• FANUC-side program: RDK_S3 [RoboDK Driver v4][27-May-2025]
  
• RoboDK driver (PC): FanucSM.exe (version information is not shown in file properties; SHA-256: 02767CBDB86A8060D41CE07DA3D78BAAE9428D9EC1BE633EBBF78067D327D0D1)
  
• Control path: RoboDK API (C#; NuGet package RoboDkApi v5.8.0)
  
• Other clients or command sources: none
  

Symptoms

• The issue occurs while sending MoveJ and MoveL commands through the RoboDK API.
  
• Sometimes the physical robot appears to move normally, but the RoboDK model jumps to an implausible pose or joint configuration and RoboDK stops with an error. The error message varies by incident, but often indicates that the target is unreachable.
  
• The displayed pose varies. The model may appear tightly folded, extend almost straight upward, or appear to intersect the floor or itself.
  
• During an incident, the teach pendant shows no abnormality in the physical robot's position. Only the simulated arm in RoboDK appears abnormal.
  

Wireshark observations

• During normal operation, the PC appears to send a request with an 88-byte TCP payload, followed by 22 robot-to-PC TCP segments carrying 4 bytes each, and then the next request.
  
• The 3rd through 8th 4-byte TCP payloads from the robot appear to contain the current joint angles for J1-J6.
  
• During an incident, the PC appears to send the next request before all 22 TCP segments believed to belong to the previous reply have been observed. The remaining segments from that reply are then followed by 22 TCP segments believed to be the next reply, after which the RoboDK pose appears incorrect.
  
• Before some incidents, the interval between TCP segments appears longer than usual. This change may contribute to a timing issue, but we have not established a causal link.
  

Questions

1. What corrective steps do you recommend to resolve this issue and make online control and pose feedback reliable? Are there known issues with RoboDK 5.9.2, the FANUC driver, the CRX-30iA, or its controller software? Which versions or settings do you recommend, and does any component need updating?
   
2. Is the CRX-25iA model supported for online control of a physical CRX-30iA? Could this model difference affect the displayed pose or cause RoboDK to stop? Which model or settings do you recommend?
   
3. Can the Wireshark capture help identify the cause, such as a request/response mismatch? If additional logs or diagnostic information are needed, what should I provide and how can I collect it?
   

Available evidence

I can provide a filtered Wireshark capture. Please let me know whether you would prefer it to be shared privately.

When I move the robot using the teach pendant, I can see its movements on the tablet but the virtual robot in RoboDK does not update automatically. I know there is an option to retrieve the robot's current position but I have to click it manually and it doesn't keep updating as the robot moves.

Is it possible to configure RoboDK to continuously display the real robot's position and follow its movements?

Disabling ‘Impose original tool and reference in programs’ fixes the reference frame issue but now I cannot get the curve follow projects to run at all and the points that the robot will move to are completely incorrect. I get a green check with ‘path solved successfully’ but when I simulate/run it just moves to the first point and stops. The green tool path looks correct but again the points that it does move to are not even close.]]> https://robodk.com/forum/Thread-Welding-Add-In-RoboDK Thu, 08 Oct 2026 13:34:53 +0000 YannikB]]> https://robodk.com/forum/Thread-Welding-Add-In-RoboDK
I would like to use the Welding Add-In in RoboDK for a welding project / WAAM application. I have already sent several inquiries regarding this, but unfortunately, I have not received a response yet.

Do you have any experience with the Welding Add-In or know how the process works? I would really appreciate it if you could give me some information or point me in the right direction.

I would like to get started with the Welding Add-In as soon as possible, so any help or information would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much in advance for your support.

Best regards,
