Summary


Details

When using a Pick & Place operation, the pick pose "PICK" is not gripping the part. If the pick pose is changed to "CLOSE, the grip command works.



Solution

The issue is that the PICK pose did not allow the gripper tips to contact the part, so no attachment could be made. Changing the Offset value on the gripper definition allows attachment even if there was no contact between the gripper and the part. Issue is resolved.
