Joints leave their directions

Post by Schindler »

Hello,

I have built a new robot. This robot has 6 degrees of freedom, it is in the inverse kinematics mode. I defined the robot as described int the tutorial "inverseKinematicsTutorial".
I want the robot's tip to follow a target which moves on a path.
My problem is that the robot's joints leave their restricted directions. It seems that the joints are destroyed during the movement: In the simulation I can see the joints: The thin blue cylinders leave the thick orange cylinders.

Thanks for your help

Hello,

It seems that your dynamics are badly designed. Make sure to follow the dynamics design considerations (mainly points 6, 7 and 8), and read also this post.

Cheers
