Hello! I'm fairly new to VREP and robotics in general. I assume this likely basic thing.
I'm struggling to attach a robotiq 85 gripper to either UR3 and UR5 robots.
I followed the instructions:
-select the gripper
-select (with ctrl-click) the force sensor (usually in red) at the
connection spot (to me is URX_connection)
- click the assembly toolbar button
The gripper moves to the arm and seems to be attached. However, when I start the simulation, the gripper falls off.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
André
Attach gripper to UR3/5
Re: Attach gripper to UR3/5
Hello,
what CoppeliaSim version are you using?
I tested with V4.2.0 and V4.1.0 but coundn't reproduce this. Is it possible that you modified the robot and/or gripper?
Cheers

Re: Attach gripper to UR3/5
Hello, thank you for the reply.
I am using V4.2.0. I initially launched a blank scene and then added the UR5 and RG2 (also tried with Robotiq) models that come with CoppeliaSim. The assemble/disassemble button is disabled after selecting the gripper and the UR connection.
Then I launched a demo scene from PyRep named "test_scene_robots.ttt" which has the UR5 and Robotiq models. In this scene, I am able to use the assemble button, but as I mentioned, in runtime, the gripper falls.
Once again thank you for the help,
André

Re: Attach gripper to UR3/5
EDIT : It was a problem with PyRep Scene.
In a clean scene and using the default models, I was able to assemble the gripper(s). The button initially appeared disabled but that was because I wasn't properly selecting the objects (ctrl + click).
