Robot Simulation

Hi

Working on a project where I have to simulate a robot movement to pick up an object and drop it into a bin using Autodesk inventor. Is there a way to do Kinematic simulation in the software and achieve the above statement?

 

Thanks in advance

 

Regards

Yes, my students do this in Environments>Dynamic Simulation.

Attach your assembly here.

Thanks for the reply. link for the robot file:https://workdrive.zohoexternal.com/external/5HWqkrm9Iit-M4Xzc

Wanted to check if the robot can pick something and move in a linear path using Dynamic Simulation

...link for the robot file

Place all files (*.iam and *.ipt) into a single folder.

Right click on the folder and select Send to Compressed (zipped) Folder.

Attach the resulting *.zip file here.

 

STEP files are not iam or ipt files with assembly constraints.

Have you ever used the Input Grapher in Environments>Dynamic Simulation to control Joint Positions?

Hi,
I would be really interested of the outcome of this thread. I would like to do similar stuff just with a delta robot, then check the forces/torques it exert on the frame so I can continue with stress/modal analysis.

To your question @JDMather : the problem with the Input grapher that I do not know the joint position of each driving joints, because I would need to solve the Inverse kinematics problem for that, right? Without additional simulator to generate the joint position for every driving joint how could I "control" the end effector of the robot on a desired trajectory? 
How would the workflow look like?
Thanks for you help in advance!
Best regards,

David
