There are restrictions for the flange coordinate system because the X flange axis mustintersect the 5th axis, nevertheless, it must not be parallel to it.2. The frame T_FL_WP is subject to the following condition as far as 5-axis articulated-armkinematics are concerned:– MD62610 $MC_TRAFO6_TFLWP_POS = [0.0, 0.0, Z] (frame between wrist point andflange (position component))– MD62611 $MC_TRAFO6_TFLWP_RPY = [A, 0.0, 0.0] (frame between wrist point andflange (rotation component))3. There are restrictions for the tool as far as 5-axis articulated-arm kinematics areconcerned:– 4. Axis parallel to the 3rd axis: 2-dimensional tool is possible [X, 0.0, Z]– 4. Axis perpendicular to the 3rd axis: Only 1-dimensional tool is possible [X, 0.0, 0.0]4. There are restrictions for the tool as far as 5-axis Scara kinematics are concerned:– 4. Axis perpendicular to the 3rd axis: 1-dimensional tool is possible [X, 0.0, 0.0]5. Two successive basic axes must be parallel or orthogonal.6. The 4th axis must only be mounted in a parallel or orthogonal way to the last basic axis.
