How to add moveit to the new URDF? Or revise URDF?

[Yongbo]

Sorry to trouble you again. Today, I try to use moveit to control the new robot. But I find that it seems that the link link_gripper_s3_body has collision with the link ‘link_gripper_finger_right’ at the start state and the moveit group can not initialize the planning problem. As shown below:

Found a contact between ‘link_gripper_s3_body’ (type ‘Robot link’) and ‘link_gripper_finger_right’ (type ‘Robot link’), which constitutes a collision. Contact information is not stored.
[ INFO] [1713143859.952075948, 420.239000000]: Collision checking is considered complete (collision was found and 0 contacts are stored)
[ INFO] [1713143859.952094551, 420.239000000]: Start state appears to be in collision with respect to group stretch_arm

Do you know how to revise “link_gripper_s3_body” to avoid the collision and keep the urdf following the real robot? I have upload my urdf here GitHub - cyb1212/urdf: The used robot. I am using “urdf/xacro/stretch_description_SE3_eoa_wrist_dw3_tool_sg3.xacro” and its genrated urdf “urdf/xacro/stretch.urdf”.

I have found the error in the moveit setting. I forget to revise the srdf file to disable some collisions. The revised one is shown in the attached file.

Now the arm moves well. But the gripper still has some problems as shown:

[ WARN] [1713455386.102212327, 133.304000000]: Joint joint_gripper_finger_right is constrained to be above the maximum bounds. Assuming maximum bounds instead.

The gripper does not move even using the robot urdf_spawner node (
“<node name=“urdf_spawner” pkg=“gazebo_ros” type=“spawn_model”
** args=” -urdf -x $(arg x) -y $(arg y) -z $(arg z) -Y $(arg yaw) -model robot -param robot_description -J joint_lift 0.4 -J joint_wrist_yaw 1.5 -J link_gripper_finger_left 0.3 -J link_gripper_finger_right 0.3" respawn=“false” output=“screen” />**").

The URDF of the gripper base is not correct and it causes this problem. Please update "link_SG3_gripper_boday.STL in the new URDF (GitHub - hello-robot/stretch_urdf: URDFs for the Stretch mobile manipulators from Hello Robot Inc.). No moving space for the gripper finger.

I manually dig a hole for the URDF, which make the robot gripper collision-free. The controller and moveit planer still do not work. Shows the same error. Could you offer me a new moveit configuration node for the new robot model?
