Dabbing is a loose term for pick and place robotic movements being used relative to a work area. This specific file takes user defined points, duplicates them +30mm in the Z axis for entry and exit points, and then outputs robotic code to run on the Kuka KR60 #1. This file can be used for a large variety of tasks, such as dot painting, pointalism style drawing and painting, as well as extrusion printing in dot patterns.

Algorithm Steps:

Right click the Pt container and select add point or multiple points to define your points for movement.


This part of the file duplicates your points for entry and exit points. Move the number slider from 30mm to any other value - this will change the height of your entry and exit points above the work plane.


This is where the points are merged with the robot and tool containers to produce the robot code.
