Apparently there were some issues with the universal_robot package. UR5KinematicsPlugin only works with unlimited joint range, while MoveIt! only works correctly with limited joint ranges, so these modules currently cannot be used at the same time. Furthermore there were some issues with the collision models of the Universal Robots.

See the following issues for more information.

  • https://github.com/ros-industrial/universal_robot/issues/121
  • https://github.com/ros-industrial/universal_robot/issues/122
  • https://github.com/ros-industrial/universal_robot/issues/127

The issues are solved with the following pull requests:

  • https://github.com/ros-industrial/universal_robot/pull/128 (for hydro)
  • https://github.com/ros-industrial/universal_robot/pull/130 (for indigo)
