fanucpy: Python package for FANUC industrial robots

Software contents

The package consists of two parts: 1. Robot interface code written in Python programming language 2. FANUC robot controller driver (tested with R-30iB Mate Plus Controller) written in KAREL and FANUC teach pendant languages

The communication protocol between the Python package and the FANUC robot controller is depicted below: Communication Protocol

Python package installation

bash pip install -U fanucpy

Driver installation

Follow these steps to install FANUC driver.

Usage

Connect to a robot:

```python from fanucpy import Robot

robot = Robot( robotmodel="Fanuc", host="192.168.1.100", port=18735, eeDOtype="RDO", eeDO_num=7, )

robot.connect() ```

Moving

```python

move in joint space

robot.move( "joint", vals=[19.0, 66.0, -33.0, 18.0, -30.0, -33.0], velocity=100, acceleration=100, cnt_val=0, linear=False )

move in cartesian space

robot.move( "pose", vals=[0.0, -28.0, -35.0, 0.0, -55.0, 0.0], velocity=50, acceleration=50, cnt_val=0, linear=False ) ```

Opening/closing gripper

```Python

open gripper

robot.gripper(True)

close gripper

robot.gripper(False) ```

Querying robot state

```python

get robot state

print(f"Current pose: {robot.getcurpos()}") print(f"Current joints: {robot.getcurjpos()}") print(f"Instantaneous power: {robot.getinspower()}") print(f"Get gripper state: {robot.get_rdo(7)}") ```

Calling external program

python robot.call_prog(prog_name)

Get/Set RDO

python robot.get_rdo(rdo_num=7) robot.set_rdo(rdo_num=7, value=True)

Get/Set DOUT

python robot.get_rdo(dout_num=1) robot.set_rdo(dout_num=1, value=True)

RobotApp

We introduce an experimental feature: Robot Apps. This class facilitates modularity and plug-and-produce functionality. Check the following example apps:

  1. Pick and Place App
  2. Aruco Tracking App
  3. FANUC ChatGPT
