Offline programming is the best way to maximize return on investment for robot systems. ABB’s simulation and offline programming software, Robot Studio, allows robot programming to be done on a PC in the office without shutting down production, this allows you to perform tasks such as training, programming, and optimization without disturbing the production.
The tool is built on the ABB Virtual Controller, an exact copy of the real software that runs your robots in production. This allows very realistic simulations to be performed, using real robot programs and configuration files identical to those used on the shop floor.
RobotStudio comes with a full package of features and add-ons allowing for perfect offline simulation reducing risks, fastening the start-ups, shortening the change-overs and at the end increasing the productivity.
The world’s most used offline programming tool for robotics comes with a holistic package of features and add-ons for various applications.
The main features are listed below:
Virtual Meetings
Is a collaboration feature allowing to share the digital robot solutions in web meetings. The participants are immersed in the virtual room, using a VR headset connected to RobotStudio, where the RobotStudio station can be shared for making design reviews and sales proposals without travelling
Digital Twin
Is a concept to monitor and optimize the automation solution without disturbing the ongoing production. It enables real-time simulation of the production system , like a digital shadow, allowing the users to try changes and do optimization in the virtual world without affecting the production.
Virtual Commissioning
ABBs virtual commissioning solutions speed up commissioning by simulating an exact replica of the production cell in RobotStudio so that all technical issues can be solved in advance. RobotStudio allows to connect to PLCs and other external devices to fully virtually test the complete logic and safety of the cell prior to installing the physical line.
Stop position simulation
Is a feature that visualizes the optimal breaking distance. It simulated the stop position of the robot with millisecond precision for easier use of SafeMove, reduced footprint of cells and for faster and more effective virtual and physical commissioning
Augmented Reality
By using Augmented Reality (AR) technology, you can visualize robot solutions by overlaying the modelled solution over the real-life production environment as a hologram. This is done by visualizing simulations created in RobotStudio through augmented reality glasses or by using our app on a smart phone or tablet.
