RobotWorks is a CNC-style program for off-line programming of industrial robots. It is an add-in to SOLIDWORKS, acting upon CAD objects (faces, edges etc.) within an assembly. RobotWorks enables: Creating parts, tools, fixtures, work-cell parts and a robot path inside one interactive environment. Automatic path generation along CAD features (faces, curves, and more) Simulating robot and tool motion, collision detection, external axes, robot joint limits and more. Handles offsets, user frames and motion in several coordinate systems like World, Joint, Tool, User etc. Imports points form CNC programs and other formats and makes them robot programs. Translates and writes robot programs in most industrial robots formats Affordable PC solution for end user, simple and intuitive, and very short learning curve Among its many features, RobotWorks can generate without an effort a path for "Carry Part," in which the part is manipulated against a fixed tool. It can also handle External Axes such as Positioners and Linear Axes and produce automatic path and solutions for complex manufacturing situations, all from inside SOLIDWORKS!SOLIDWORKS designers create parts - RobotWorks enables them to understand the manufactruing aspects of the parts, and make changes early!A true "time-to-market" saver!
