ROBOTSTUDIO V5.07.01
Win :.Operating System
º A key technology focus for ABB is to help our customers optimize the
º productivity of their assets by minimizing downtime. Shutting down an
º automated production line to reprogram a robot is pretty costly, and
º under pressure to complete the task quickly, programmers can easily
º make mistakes that lead to more downtime.
º
º But such expensive off-line delays are history with the introduction
º of Robotstudio. ABBïs new simulation and off-line programming
º software allows the robot to be programmed on a PC without shutting
º down production.
º
º Using the Robotstudio virtual controller, an exact replica of the
º real ABB robot controller, the robot programmer can create robot
º programs on a PC and test different alternatives in the digital
º òrobot cell¦ to find the best solution. Which means new robotic
º solutions can be evaluated before the systems are in production, or
º even before they are built. It also enables certain complicated jobs
º to be automated that were previously out of bounds to robots purely
º because of the lengthy online programming time required.
º
º What is more, with Robotstudio robot programs can be prepared in
º advance, increasing the overall productivity of the production
º system. Either way, off-line programming maximizes the customerïs
º return on investment and makes production planning far more
º efficient.
º
º In practice, Robotstudio is already proving a winner on the
º production floor by halving programming times. Discovering mistakes
º and dealing with them on the PC, is another important cost-saver.
º
º To extend its functionality Robotstudio uses Microsoft Office
º applications. For example, it is easy to export data to Excel.
º Available in English and German, the software includes customized
º templates that enable support for special processes.
º
º Now established as a successful tool, Robotstudio is allowing the
º automation industry to increase productivity and improve quality
º still further.
