Hi David,
It is not possible to create a 3D print project through the API. We'll try to add this as a new feature in a timely manner. At this moment, the following call creates a curve follow project or a point follow project if the object has curves or points:
PrintProject.setMachiningParameters(part=PrintPart)
To specify the robot post processor you can change the post processor manually (right click the program and select Select Post processor) and save the project. In that case, it will use the last post processor selected.
You can also specify the robot post processor usingProgramStart. For example:
RDK.ProgramStart('ProgramName','C:/MyProgramFolder/', "KUKA_KRC4", robot)
However, this assumes you are generating the program directly from Python (not using MakeProgram). In the worst case, with the current version you can generate a dummy/empty program to change the post processor if you don't want to do it manually (post processor settings are stored in the RDK files and robot files).
If you have your path/machining project ready you can do the following to generate a program and send it to the robot automatically:
update_result = PrintProject.Update（）
程序= PrintProject.getLink (ITEM_TYPE_PROGRAM)
run_mode = RUNMODE_MAKE_ROBOTPROG_AND_UPLOAD
program.MakeProgram(path_folder, run_mode)
This is the same as right clicking your program and selecting "Send Program to Robot".
