or like a film director

And then bashes you into the concrete floor

@@TigreDemon don't worry he has a helmet on

Then crushes your skull😖

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

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

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.

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

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

who doesn't

Me if I was richer

This guy ^^^^^

"infinite Loop mode activated..."

It's called a trading 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.

legoland denmark too

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.

In LegoLand Bavaria there is also one of these. And it's really fun

@@thenamen935 There is no water tho. Which i actually cant believe.

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

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

@@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.

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

He is holding it for control of the robot

Well, we do have some amusement park with thos kind of ride here in France. Check "the Futuroscope" you'll be amazed !

@@XxDJgeekxX Oh i will!

This with vr and you dont need anything else in the amusement park🤔

Universal orlando has them

Harry Potter ride in universal studios, California

Those do exist at a Legoland I believe

just like, make sure to get good life insurance

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.

This machine could split even the strongest humans and half were lucky it’s on our side

Only for the lucky ones

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.

@@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.

@@RichHaydleon check out HGR industrial surplus in Euclid Ohio

@@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.

90°/s for J1

@@ExcessiveOverkill Damn

*Through* the Floor

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.

The speed actually is 100%, the acceleration is like 30%.

I thought about it, they aren’t near powerful enough to lift themselves unfortunately

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.

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.

@@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.

OP says that the machine is about 25 years old.

Yeah it’s an old refurbished machine. It doesn’t get used in production anymore.

I did

Uhh, it can lift like 150kg the m2000ia can lift that 2500kg
