Ewellix Common Packages
ROS2 description, MoveIt configuration, and interface packages for the Ewellix TLT lifts.
Ewellix Driver Package
See the Ewellix driver repository for more information on commanding a real lift through ROS.
Ewellix Visualization
The ewellix_viz package provides a launch file to load the URDF using specific lift parameters and display it in RViz.
By default, the tlt_x25 lift is used. This lift has a 500 mm stroke, but has a taller base than the tlt_x15 that provides less torque.
ros2 launch ewellix_viz rviz_model.launch.py
Lift Parameters
To switch to a different lift type, pass in a different configuration file using the lift_parameters launch parameter. For example, the Ewellix UR 620 designed to mount UR manipulators can be selected as follows:
ros2 launch ewellix_viz rviz_model.launch.py lift_parameters:=/path/to/ewellix_description/config/ur_620.yaml
Change the
/path/to/path prefix with the path to theur_620.yamlin theewellix_descriptionpackage
Base Plate
It is also possible to the move the base plate and mounting plate from the model.
To remove the base plate, use the add_plate launch argument:
|
|
ros2 launch ewellix_viz rviz_model.launch.py lift_parameters:=/path/to/ewellix_description/config/ur_620.yaml add_plate:=false
Mounting Plate
To remove the mounting plate, use the add_mount launch argument:
|
|
ros2 launch ewellix_viz rviz_model.launch.py lift_parameters:=/path/to/ewellix_description/config/ur_620.yaml add_mount:=false
Ewellix Simulation
The simulation requires Gazebo installed from the ROS vendor packages. Use rosdep to install the dependencies on the ewellix_sim package.
Use the same parameters from the Ewellix Visualization section to select a lift type, then launch the simulation from the ewellix_sim package launch file.
ros2 launch ewellix_sim simulation.launch.py lift_parameters:=/path/to/ewellix_description/config/ur_620.yaml add_mount:=true add_plate:=true
Simulation without MoveIt!
By default, the controller loaded to the simulated ROS 2 control plugin is the JointGroupPositionController using the jpc.yaml. This controller allows the desired position of the lift to be set directly by the user through the /lift_position_controller/commands topic.
After starting the simulation, use the following command to set the height of the lift:

To remove the base plate, use the add_plate launch argument:
|
|
|
ros2 launch ewellix_viz rviz_model.launch.py lift_parameters:=/path/to/ewellix_description/config/ur_620.yaml add_plate:=false
Mounting Plate
To remove the mounting plate, use the add_mount launch argument:
|
|
|
ros2 launch ewellix_viz rviz_model.launch.py lift_parameters:=/path/to/ewellix_description/config/ur_620.yaml add_mount:=false
Ewellix Simulation
The simulation requires Gazebo installed from the ROS vendor packages. Use rosdep to install the dependencies on the ewellix_sim package.
Use the same parameters from the Ewellix Visualization section to select a lift type, then launch the simulation from the ewellix_sim package launch file.
ros2 launch ewellix_sim simulation.launch.py lift_parameters:=/path/to/ewellix_description/config/ur_620.yaml add_mount:=true add_plate:=true
Simulation without MoveIt!
By default, the controller loaded to the simulated ROS 2 control plugin is the JointGroupPositionController using the jpc.yaml. This controller allows the desired position of the lift to be set directly by the user through the /lift_position_controller/commands topic.
After starting the simulation, use the following command to set the height of the lift:

Ewellix Common Packages
ROS2 description, MoveIt configuration, and interface packages for the Ewellix TLT lifts.
Ewellix Driver Package
See the Ewellix driver repository for more information on commanding a real lift through ROS.
Ewellix Visualization
The ewellix_viz package provides a launch file to load the URDF using specific lift parameters and display it in RViz.
By default, the tlt_x25 lift is used. This lift has a 500 mm stroke, but has a taller base than the tlt_x15 that provides less torque.
ros2 launch ewellix_viz rviz_model.launch.py
Lift Parameters
To switch to a different lift type, pass in a different configuration file using the lift_parameters launch parameter. For example, the Ewellix UR 620 designed to mount UR manipulators can be selected as follows:
ros2 launch ewellix_viz rviz_model.launch.py lift_parameters:=/path/to/ewellix_description/config/ur_620.yaml
Change the
/path/to/path prefix with the path to theur_620.yamlin theewellix_descriptionpackage

Ewellix Common Packages
ROS2 description, MoveIt configuration, and interface packages for the Ewellix TLT lifts.
Ewellix Driver Package
See the Ewellix driver repository for more information on commanding a real lift through ROS.
Ewellix Visualization
The ewellix_viz package provides a launch file to load the URDF using specific lift parameters and display it in RViz.
By default, the tlt_x25 lift is used. This lift has a 500 mm stroke, but has a taller base than the tlt_x15 that provides less torque.
ros2 launch ewellix_viz rviz_model.launch.py
Lift Parameters
To switch to a different lift type, pass in a different configuration file using the lift_parameters launch parameter. For example, the Ewellix UR 620 designed to mount UR manipulators can be selected as follows:
ros2 launch ewellix_viz rviz_model.launch.py lift_parameters:=/path/to/ewellix_description/config/ur_620.yaml
Change the
/path/to/path prefix with the path to theur_620.yamlin theewellix_descriptionpackage
Base Plate
It is also possible to the move the base plate and mounting plate from the model.
To remove the base plate, use the add_plate launch argument:
|
|
|
ros2 launch ewellix_viz rviz_model.launch.py lift_parameters:=/path/to/ewellix_description/config/ur_620.yaml add_plate:=false
Mounting Plate
To remove the mounting plate, use the add_mount launch argument:
|
|
|
ros2 launch ewellix_viz rviz_model.launch.py lift_parameters:=/path/to/ewellix_description/config/ur_620.yaml add_mount:=false
Ewellix Simulation
The simulation requires Gazebo installed from the ROS vendor packages. Use rosdep to install the dependencies on the ewellix_sim package.
Use the same parameters from the Ewellix Visualization section to select a lift type, then launch the simulation from the ewellix_sim package launch file.
ros2 launch ewellix_sim simulation.launch.py lift_parameters:=/path/to/ewellix_description/config/ur_620.yaml add_mount:=true add_plate:=true
Simulation without MoveIt!
By default, the controller loaded to the simulated ROS 2 control plugin is the JointGroupPositionController using the jpc.yaml. This controller allows the desired position of the lift to be set directly by the user through the /lift_position_controller/commands topic.
After starting the simulation, use the following command to set the height of the lift:
