Hello, the mechanism wizard offers 1 linear axis + 1 rotational axis. However, I would like to model it the other way: 1 rotational axis + 1 linear axis. The robot is mounted on the linear axis. How can I model it? Maybe it's possible to stack two single mechanisms into each other. But how to program then both axes? The program dialog offers only one field for value input besides the robot joints.

The problem aboutUtilities➔Synchronize External Axesis that I caneithersynchronize with my linear axisorwith the rotational axis. Only the selected external axis appears in the Robot Joints Panel for programming my process.
But on the other hand, I can jog both joints without problems in the mechanism panel. However, programming is not possible because one axis is missing.
To be honest, I don't need synchronization between the axes. I will first move my linear axis, then I rotate, andsubsequentlyI move the robot. The follow up question will be, how to distinguish between a robot or an axis movement in the postprocessor.
Can you look into my example, please? The axes do not have to be synchronized. You came up with this proposition, I tried it. But it's not what I'm looking for.
我只是喜欢用2个独立的斧子s, like in the example where the robot is mounted on gantry mechanism. However, the first axis is a rot axis. Whereas, in your synchronization example the first axis is a linear one, Albert. That makes a difference here.
