Industrial Robot Arm
Multi-machine coordination — arm joints, conveyor belt, and vision system.
This case study is a placeholder. Full content coming soon.
Overview
A pick-and-place robot cell composed of three cooperating machines: a 6-axis
robot arm, a conveyor belt, and a vision system. Each machine is an independent
BaseMachine instance managed by a single defineConfig setup file.
Config-driven per-axis joint limits allow the same RobotArm class to be reused
across multiple axes.
What this covers:
defineConfigwith per-machine config- Reusing one machine class across multiple instances
- Lifecycle hooks for homing sequences
- Coordinating machines from external application logic
- Config-driven safety limits validated at startup
Machine design
Full walkthrough coming soon.
Setup file
import { defineConfig } from "@vintage/core"
export default defineConfig({
conveyor: { class: ConveyorBelt, config: { speed: 0.3 } },
"arm-joint-1": { class: RobotAxis, config: { axis: 1, maxAngle: 170 } },
"arm-joint-2": { class: RobotAxis, config: { axis: 2, maxAngle: 120 } },
vision: { class: VisionSystem },
})Key patterns
| Pattern | Where it applies |
|---|---|
defineConfig | Declaring four machines in one file |
static configSchema | Per-axis joint limits validated at startup |
init() homing sequence | Moving axis to home position before accepting commands |
| External coordination | Application code calls machine action APIs to sequence operations |
