Code for the arm #4

It is preferable if the robot arm can be controlled with gcode, because it would make transferring STL files to workable commands easier.

Here is a paper with great flow charts regarding this: http://eps.novia.fi/assets/Sidor/2/1545/Final-Report-3D-Printing-with-Robotic-Arm.pdf

They were able to do a very similar thing as to what we are trying to do. They used a commercial robot that is not a KUKA arm.

This will have to be done after the arm is picked.
