Offline programming using the Virtual Robot Technology is just like having the real robot on your PC!
Offline programming is the best way to maximize return on investment for robot systems. ABB's simulation and offline programming software, RobotStudio, allows robot programming to be done on a PC in the office without shutting down production. It also enables robot programs to be prepared in advance, increasing overall productivity.
RobotStudio provides the tools to increase the profitability of your robot system by letting you perform tasks such as training, programming, and optimization without disturbing production. This provides numerous benefits including:
- Risk reduction
- Quicker start-up
- Shorter change-over
- Increased productivity
RobotStudio is built on the ABB VirtualController, an exact copy of the real software that runs your robots in production. It thus allows very realistic simulations to be performed, using real robot programs and configuration files identical to those used on the shop floor.
