DRL Studio

This PowerUp is intended to be used for the background processing feature on the Hub. Background processing can be used to monitor the status of the robot even when a program task is not running. Beckground tasks can be used also to control the robot digital and analog I/O, configure rules and fire desired events when triggering conditions are met.

Background tasks are executed on the Homberger Hub, not on the Robot, so this PowerUp library is not intended for developing robot programs but to realize parallel tasks that must be uploaded on the hub using the Background Task tool window inside DRL Studio.

WARNING: the Homberger Hub it’s not a safety board, so safety events must be managed along with safety devices and connections.

This PowerUp provides integration functions for CheckApp application.

CheckApp is the App of the Homberger Hub platform focus on smart human robot interaction. Interaction between robot and users can be realized through CheckApp Smartphone App or with custom HMI panels displayed directly on robot teach pendnat.

CheckApp Smartphone App can be used to monitor robot and process data, change robot parameters, receive notifications and check application logs.

In order to let final users interact easily with your program, this PowerUp allows also to integrate custom HMI panels on doosan teach pendant. Predefined components such as Buttons, Labels, Param Inputs, Variable Monitors, Images can be added to your panel using DRL Studio HMI editor and then linked with DRL functions or variables.

This PowerUp provides accurate and flexible functions forpalletizing applications.

Pallets can be configured using number of row, columns and layers or specifying size and dimensions of boxes.

Provided functions:
– automatic calculation of pallet points
– automatic calculation of approach directions
– layer mirroring
– auto save pallet status

This PowerUp provides integration functions with Keyence Camera vision system. The library can be used to trigger a vision job and retrieve resulting information.

This PowerUp allows a direct integration for OnRobot tools inside DRL. Using this library you can operate OnRobot tools without need of digital I/O or modbus protocol. Only IP address of OnRobot control box is required.

Supported tools are:
– RG2
– RG6
– Sander
– VG10
– 2FG7
– VGP20
– 3FG15
– Double Quick Changer
– HEX
– Eyes

This PowerUp supports OPC UA client and server communication protocol. OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) is a machine to machine communication protocol for industrial automation developed by the OPC Foundation.

Supported features:
– client and server
– namespaces and objects navigation
– variables read and write
– properties read and write
– methods invocation
– subscriptions handlers

This PowerUp allows to call DRL commands from an external applications or devices. TCP, HTTP or RPC protocols are supported. Thanks to this library, DRL commands can be called and executed directly from a remote application without developing custom communication logic or integration.

When using TCP protocol, DRL commands can be sent to the robot as string on the socket comunication.

With HTTP protocol, rest API with json body can be used to send DRL commands or whole scripts, and receive result in response.

Using RPC protocol, DRL functions can be directly invoked with the same syntax from python clients.

This PowerUp provides integration functions with SensoPart Visor vision system. The library can be used to trigger a vision job and retrieve resulting information.

This library can be used also to display SensoPart web application on the robot teach pendnat to monitor vision job execution.

This PowerUp provides integration with Solomon 3D vision system for random bin picking applications.

Solomon AccuPick 3D is a powerful robotic 3D vision solution based on Artificial Intelligence technologies. Its variable 3D vision hardware compatibility, along with its comprehensive deep learning vision software algorithm and its multi-brand robot motion planning interface, make AccuPicK 3D the perfect all-in-one solution for your robotic 3D vision projects.

Integration provided in this PowerUp is based on solomon TCP/IP protocol. AccuPick version 2 has TCP/IP protocol enabled by default, while AccuPick version 3 and 4 can be configured in more flexible way using protcol template inside the flowchart design.

Both Eye-To-Hand and Eye-In-Hand methods are supported by the PowerUp.

This PowerUp provides utilities and management function for:

– application logging on USB
– saving and loading persistent parameters
– persistent system variables
– CSV data monitoring
– cycle time calculation
– USB device serial communication (i.e for Arduino board)
– USB file management
– Python libraries and sub programs management
– bit and number conversion functions
– sanding emails

This PowerUp allows to display web sites, web pages and any other web content directly on robot teach pendant. Useful to let operators interact with web applications connected to the robot system.

Nowadays many ERP, WMS and SCM platforms are provided as local or cloud web application, using Web view PowerUP you can display and interact with your business logic and processes directly on the robot, without additional monitors, HMI or PC.

WebView PowerUp requires CheckApp to be installed on robot.
