- Overview
Machine Workflow
Turn on the machine
- Turn on the air compressor (if working with gripper or spindle)
- Turn on the Kuka box for electronic switches
- Turn on the Kuka controller KRC2 with the black handle
- Wait that the operative system Windows XP turns on
- Press the two buttons on the box attached to the entrance door; first "rearme", then "peticion"
- On the Teach Pendant press the window selection key to switch the selection to the command status window
- Use the soft keys to acknowledge the status
- Copy the file from the USB into the server to execute the file

Robotic Processes
List of processes already tested with the KUKA at IAAC (by order of feasibility and accessibility) :
- Light Writing,
- Pen Writing
- Clay Engraving
- Bot&Dolly Camera
- 3D Scan (that can be combined with any other process for a slow material feedback loop)
- Pick & Place
- Wire / rope / fibre weaving
- Spraying (paint, glue, fibre, sand, mud, clay)
- Hot Wire Cutting. (EPS foam)
- 7D Milling. (foam, plaster, wood,....)
- 7D Chain-saw
- 3D printing (plastic, clay, hydrogel...)
- Reverse Milling (to be combined with Pick&Place application).
- Real Time Interaction (to be combined with any other process, need RSI)
