ACOPOS 6D - Basics

Description

This course will guide you through understanding the concepts and features of ACOPOS 6D. Learn how to design layouts, use LaunchPad and Traffic Manager, and perform basic shuttle movements in the lessons provided to you in this course.

Content:

  • Add and configure ACOPOS 6D configuration files and hardware modules in an Automation Studio project
  • Control the ACOPOS 6D system and start basic movements for shuttles using functionality provided by mapp6D core (McAcp6D).
  • Adapt to a process-oriented programming style and apply it on a real use-case.
  • Use the 6D Launchpad to simulate their ACOPOS 6D system and optimize the routing of shuttles between process stations.
  • Apply the routing solutions into the application using the mapp6D Traffic manager (MpTraffic).
