Pose and orientation of my robot is incorrect in Gazebo and RViz .

I have exported the URDF from Solidworks using solidworks to URDF plugin. I didn't modify any option in dialogues opened during export. Then i created an URDF package in ROS workspace and spawned the robot model into the world which resulted in inverted pose of the robot as shown in picture.

when load model in gazebo and Rviz from starting have this pose . how can edit my urdf or xacro file to load robot correctly ?? my xacro file : https://www.dropbox.com/sh/d4wjdjie1s...

Could it have fallen to the ground? Have you tried starting the simulation paused?

where is the 0,0,0 in your solidworks? by the look is not in the base. can you edit your model from the gui and capture the screen?

Did you pause the simulation after it had already started or you started the simulation paused? You can set `paused:=true` when you launch it.

The reason I think it fell is that it looks like that on your screenshot.

Hi, I am pretty late in answering but the rpy in <origin> tags inside the <link> tag of the urdf needs to be changed to orient the model as you want
