Configure Collision Detection

To prevent the robot from colliding with other objects while it performs its tasks, collision detection must be configured.

In the Collisions tab, click on Collision Detection Configuration to set between which two objects you wish to check for collision.

  1. Robot links and robot links

  2. Robot links and scene objects

  3. Robot links and robot tool (end effector)

  4. Scene objects and robot tool
