Re: Van De Graff effect on shooter

We haven't had this problem this year but last year every time we would walk away to get a part and return while it was being worked on we would get a little zap and could see the sparks from fingers or metal tool to the robot. But this was totally the effect from a very dry room and very old, dry carpet. Solved this by making the floor damp. Maybe you need to wipe down your PVC?
