Installing ROS-Industrial packages

The main repository of ROS-Industrial packages can be found at the following link: https://github.com/ros-industrial. In this repository, developers can find different packages used to interface their ROS system with typical industrial tools and devices, such as Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), or directly communicate with the hardware driver of popular industrial manipulators such as Kuka, abb, or Fanuc. Apart from this, the main repository for ROS-Industrial resources is the industrial_core stack, which can be downloaded from the following Git repository:

git clone https://github.com/ros-industrial/industrial_core

This repository is still under development to assure full compatibility with ROS Noetic. However, the industrial-core stack includes the following set of ROS packages:

industrial-core: This stack contains packages and libraries for supporting industrial robotic systems. The package consists of nodes for communicating...
