Issue Kinematic calculations help to transform joint into cartesian values and vice versa. But how to define the robot arm configuration (e.g. elbow up or elbow down) while sending the robot to a defined position in cartesian space? Resolution Using inverse kinematics the mendatory entry of a reference positions solves this issue.

Issue Lexium Cobot allows to define load settings in one parameter set. But how to handle different gripper product combinations in a program and especially calculate center of mass with and without product. Resolution Using variables to update the parameters during runtime is the first step. Creating scipts allows maximum flexibility with the load settings and calculation of Center of Mass.

Issue The Cobot is running an application program where parallel to the movement it shall: - monitor the position - update or react on IO - initiate additional communication (e.g. socket comms) Resolution Lexium Cobot allows to run programs with up to 5 sub-threads to trigger prallel execution.

Issue With Lexium Cobot the application program and all settings reside in the control cabinet. To backup/restore an application properly two separate backup files need to be handled (system backup and program backup). Resolution This article describes the content of the files and the handling of the backup process.

Issue For welding the tool shall perform a Z shape movement (MoveZ) or follow a straight line with oscillation tool (MoveZS). Resolution The application blocks for Lexium Cobot available in EcoSreuxure Cobot Expert app programming offer these features.
