ExtruderSpeed() function for 3D printing with ABB IRB120
#5
Hi Loaferhit,

I think you don't understand the proper meaning of the E value.
It represents how much filament your extruder needs to feed, not the speed of the robot end of arm tooling (EOAT).
The speed of the actual extruder with respect to the part is 60 mm/s, this is most likely set previously by the G-Code.

Right now, RoboDK is transferring the extruder value to the robot controller so that you can create a subprogram to catch this value and drive your filament extruder internal motor so that it feeds the right amount of filament between the two points.

Hope it helps you better understand the process.
