I am a reicent grad from ECPI and have been doing minor Allen-Bradley programming. I am looking for a project that I can build and program to do repetitious movements, such as stacking objects in several locations with one pivot point. I am buying this myself with no help from the school so I need to go as low as possible. Looking for a kit, or package that will provide this platform. I have a Micro-logic 1400 and authorized program so all I need is a bot. Any ideas will be great. Thanks
Hi,
We offer multiple robotic arm and gripper kits that could perform such actions. You can browse the products here. You can also check out our blog post about Lynxmotion robotic arm kits. It includes many details on the different kits and how to choose the proper one.
The main issue you will face will be interfacing the Micro-logic 1400 to the kit’s controller. In most cases, the boards use a TTL UART interface. Simply check the product page and ensure your device will be able to connect to the kit’s interface.
Sincerely,
