What is Robot Programmer?

3DEXPERIENCE-Delmia-Robot-Programmer-Screen

The Robot Programmer role enables users to simulate and validate robot tasks to eliminate errors before implementation. Whether you’re looking to fully automate a system or add a robot (cobot) to work collaboratively with an operator, automating repetitive tasks delivers benefits that will be seen immediately.

Benefits include:

  • Reuse current production robot programs to accelerate changes and adjustments in existing cells
  • Offline programming so users can develop and test robotic programs without halting production
  • Seamless SOLIDWORKS integration and connection to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform
  • User-friendly UI tailored to advanced robotics programming needs
  • Visualize robotic functions in real-time to catch potential issues early and reduce costly errors down the line

  • Use the “Autoplace” function to determine your robot's optimal placement, ensuring it can reach everywhere you need it without getting in the way. 
  • Ability to program robots offline, so you can keep your production equipment running while making tweaks to the robot program. 
  • Over 2,000 different robot kinematic models in the supported library or import existing robot programs for simulation and modification
  • Quickly calculate the loading of pallets based on the size and weight of the packages

Implement Faster with Fewer Errors
