Staubli RX60L on arrival

Status

Oil changed on joints 3,4,5,6, still need to do 1 and 2 but don't have a hex key that's long enough! 08-OCT-13

Description

Kindly donated to us by Queen Mary's University, was missing control and power cables.

The cable has been replaced with a DIY one, now the members of the [Robotics] group are figuring out a way to securely mount it so that it can be used for 3d printing, precision cutting, milling, sculpting (maybe welding later)
