Hi marie,
I stumbled across the same problem! As you already mentioned, I also think the code example in the provided Postprocessor is for the older version of the gripper, which uses an outdated set of Modbus commands. Furthermore the postprocessor example throws out a syntax error (at least in my version of RoboDK) because it uses the wrong quotation marks for the header code.

This aside, I think, there are two possibilities for the communication between the Robotiq 2F-85 gripper and RoboDK.
For my solution (which I got by accident) I use the special command library provided by robotiq, for URscript. The library must be send in the header of every program, generated with robodk. Then you can use the functions like

rq_activate_all_grippers(True)
rq_move_and_wait_mm(pos_mm, gripper_socket=1)

as custom code blocks in robodk programs, for activating the gripper and opening / closing it. This is not a very elegant solution but it works ;) I can also send you my custom Postprocessor.
A more elegant solution could be changing the MoveJ function in the Postprocessor to something like this:

def MoveJ(self, pose, joints, conf_RLF=None):
"""Add a joint movement"""
if pose is None:
blend_radius = "0"
自我。LAST_POS_ABS =没有
else:
pose_abs = self.REF_FRAME*pose
blend_radius = self.blend_radius_check(pose_abs)
自我。LAST_POS_ABS = pose_abs.Pos()

if len(joints) == 1:
自我。addline('rq_move_and_wait_mm(%s)' % (angles_2_str(joints(0)))
elif 2 <= len(joints) < 6:
自我。RunMessage('Move axes to: ' + angles_2_str(joints))
else:
自我。addline('movej(%s,accel_radss,speed_rads,0,%s)' % (angles_2_str(joints), blend_radius))

However, I get a syntax error when I try this out.

The second solution, which I did not try out, is to update the Modbus commands in the original Universal_Robots_RobotiQ postprocessor. I think the command "Go_to_Requested" should be changed to “Go to requested position” or something similar. You can find the correct commands in the robotiq manual.

If you have a working solution by now, I would be glad if you share it.

Hi @SimonTwo,

Could you share the special command library provided by robotiq, for URscript. I'm trying to get the gripper to move but I've not been able to do it so far.
