Industrial Robot Ride

[@TumpaTalapatra]

Imagine watching a VR video of flying sitting inside a jet the robot simulating the motion.

[@SukottoX]

Nah playing a VR game of flying a fighter jet and having the robot simulate the motion.

[@johnmartinez7440]

I've been in something similar at the Science Museum in London. Great fun, but nearly vomited.

[@DavidSmith-oy4of]

Have you not been on the old school "VR" rides? They were popular in the 90's. Imagine a mini cinema on a moving platform that can tilt. The experience was pretty good.

[@cldus7442]

I have a vague memory of the museum of flight in Seattle having something similar. I was pretty young at the time, but from what I remember it was a similar arm with a full cockpit attached to it. I was too young to ride, and I'm not entirely sure if they are still there :(. This was around a decade ago

[@Kids_Scissors]

It won't simulate some of the G forces but that certainly sounds like a lot of fun anyways

[@petemk73]

"This is perfectly safe, right?" "Oh, yes. Absolutely." "And the crash helmet?" "........" "........." "It's to catch the vomit"

as i recall, they have this same sort of thing in LegoLand California with one addition, the arm dunks you underwater breifly during the movement.

legoland denmark too

[@EthanLamoreauxth3t3chninja]

yeah, I've actually been on it. I was just thinking about it while watching the video lol actually, I think they got rid of it? I vaguely remember it being gone the last time I went there

You could programm it yourself aswell.

"infinite Loop mode activated..."

[@mage3690]

It's called a training pendant. There's 2 triggers you have to hold on the back of it. Either squeezing or letting go of either of those triggers will stop the robot immediately.

[@serveri69]

@@mage3690 you sure? he is adjusting his helmet with other hand and it doesnt stop

[@mage3690]

@@serveri69 huh, maybe not. Or it could be that you only need one hand holding the trigger right. I do remember it being kinda difficult to get used to, first time around, but I only messed with these things like 3 times back when I was in college. Although, that was at the very end. These things are designed to fail safe and he could have it set up to where when the triggers are wrong, it goes into slow mode and sets him down gently so he never gets stuck in the air. I'm not 100% sure that's a thing you can do, but I wouldn't be surprised.

[@beadybiddle]

Person on the e-stop probably had the sweatiest palms known to man

[@mage3690]

He's holding the e-stop, so yeah, probably.

[@beadybiddle]

@@mage3690 is he? I thought that was an iPhone with the camera app open

[@mage3690]

@@beadybiddle could be, IDK I guess. The teach pendant I'm used to is a bit bigger than that. I just thought of what I'd want to be holding while riding around in this and arrived at a pretty simple conclusion: something that would stop it. Also, he's holding it correctly if it was a teach pendant.

[@ExcessiveOverkill]

He’s holding an iPhone. I’m holding the teach pendant off screen with the deadman’s switches.

[@ARVash]

The thrill is in how quickly it could smash your skull into the pavement. Wise to wear a helmet.

[@tortinwall]

50 seconds. About 20 seconds longer than my lunch would need to reject me.

They have that ride at Legoland best ride of my life I laughed so hard

When you don't have time for fun even strapped into the coolest robot ride and you're too busy on Snapchat to acknowledged it.

[@LivingTheDream77]

He is holding it for control of the robot

[@anotherdave5107]

What does it do if you drop that smartphone controller app.

[@ExcessiveOverkill]

The phone isn’t controlling it, he’s just making a video. I’m holding the actual controller off video and the robot stops right away if you let go of it.

[@A3Kr0n]

what if he had the teach pendant

[@TheJacklwilliams]

Per the comments below, every innovation developed in the last few hundred years, yeah, same. Life is trying to kill us, daily. Create, destroy, create, destroy, kind of how it all works. When I started skydiving I told my kids, if I die doing this, understand I could pick no better way to go. I'd rather splat into the ground at 120 then lay in a hospital bed for six months being fed through a tube. Death has no great options. Anyway, looks awesome, I want a ride.

[@reakda3410]

[@fearisan]

Those do exist at a Legoland I believe

[@peterstuart133]

ok this is not totally safe one software glitch or position switch failure and bang. If your going to do this at least make a full roll type cage with something to cut the belt so you can get out quick

[@ExcessiveOverkill]

It’s not TOTALLY safe, but I would trust this way more than those portable carnival rides. They’re meant to fail safe, meaning they just lock in place if there’s any error, including power loss. All the programs are tested without a person in it and are run in teach mode(you MUST hold in the deadman’s switch to allow movement, if you let go it stops immediately). There is of course still the chance of several bits all being simultaneously flipped in a way that it avoids the memory error detection, then tries to move somewhere it shouldn’t, in which case I would release the deadman switch. Or the most dangerous risk being complete mechanical failure(it rips out of the concrete, motor brakes fail, reducer fails), but even then, the counterbalance and springs will help prevent it from just dropping onto the ground, it’s more likely to reach into the air.

[@V8Power5300]

They had that arm set to slowmotion

After lot of safety precautions this has been done and it's highly reliable for this application compare to conventional rides.👍🙏

[@RichHaydleon]

What model of Robotic arm is this? What's the rating and other info? I know nothing about these arms; but I am in the market for one.

[@ExcessiveOverkill]

This is a Fanuc s-420iw it’s rated for 150kg I believe. However if you’re looking for one to go into manufacturing I’d get a much newer model, like the 2000ib or 2000ic. This one is around 25 years old and all the parts are obsolete. If you just want one mess around with, look at industrial surplus places for old used ones, sometimes you can find ones will all the parts for dirt cheap. You’ll also need 3 phase power to run one of pretty much any size.

[@RichHaydleon]

@@ExcessiveOverkill Thanks for the help so far, I was hoping we could talk more, if you could email me (it’s in my channel). I want to know how much it weighs; did you train it with a pendant? How tall is it? I’m attempting to put it indoors, what type of ceiling height do I need just to clear its “elbow”. Looking forward to working together.

[@andrewboerder]

@@RichHaydleon check out HGR industrial surplus in Euclid Ohio

[@natpim4730]

@@RichHaydleon That kind of arm cannot really be moved without a forklift... What you plan on doing with it really determines what arm you should get. Also note that 90% of the arms out there require 3phase power just to turn on. You need an indstural building with such serverice if you wish to run them at all.

[@unkarsthug4429]

This is actually what universal uses under their harry potter ride, or at least, arms like it.

[@rndautomation2416]

I believe they use a brand called Bot & Dolly, which is made exclusively for amusement rides..i.e. the factors of saftey are MUCH higher. Fanuc makes great robots, but something like this has no where near the saftey built into it that the 6-Axis robots have used at Universal, Disney, and Legoland.

[@ExcessiveOverkill]

I believe Bot & Dolly is just like an integrator. It looks like all the robots they use are Kuka’s. Someone else mentioned the robots used for rides only needed to change a couple things like end stops and the counterbalance to be in compliance.

[@unkarsthug4429]

@@rndautomation2416 According to en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Potter_and_the_Forbidden_Journey , which I know is wikipedia, but it's more than I know, they use KUKA arms for the ride I was talking about in particular.
