I would like to model a custom-made gantry system in RoboDk (see the attached image). It's a gantry system equipped with 4 independent linear actuators at the top of the robot that go up and down as shown in the attached image.
After importing the stp files, in the BuildMechanism GUI menu, I cannot assign more than 3 joints. Therefore, 3 out of my 4 actuators cannot be modeled directly using the build mechanism menu. So, to include the remaining 3 actuators, what should I do?
I already tried to modify Buildmechansim function in robolink.py as per attachment but I cannot see any changes? I would like to physically see all my linear actuators on the robots. At the moment, only one actuator can be modeled. Any idea what's the easiest way to add the other three actuators this this robot?
