The original Makerbot Cupcake built at Fab Lab Barcelona in 2010

Technical specifications

Brand:

  • Kuka Robotics

Model:

  • KR 150 L110–2


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


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)
