Robot Arm Orientations

When developing a robot program, it is necessary to specify the point data taught for a particular arm orientation. If you fail to do so, the position can deviate slightly depending on the arm orientation, which in turn can cause the arm to follow an unexpected path, resulting in interference with peripheral equipment. This can be dangerous! To prevent this from happening, the orientation that the arm will be in when moved to the given point should be specified ahead of time in the point data. Such information can also be changed from the program.
