programming a robot,the most challengeous work

It will be really hard to manipulate a bulk of wire and running electrons to be programmed.

Today Robots are being used for a far more diverse series of

manufacturing processes that all require offline programming

including:-

􀁺

Machining

􀁺

Trimming

􀁺

Welding

􀁺

Water Jet Cutting

􀁺

Inspection

􀁺

Scanning

􀁺

Adhesive Layering

PowerMILL is the leading, 2, 3, 4 & 5 Axis milling software on the

market today. PowerMILL's robust and reliable machining

strategies can be used to program a robot as effectively as they

can be used to program a conventional milling machine. This

allows the users to rapidly take the existing CAD files of the part

and program the robot to machine the part, trim off the flash or

complete the next part of the manufacturing process. Once the

part has been programmed using any of PowerMILL’s machining

strategies the programs can be quickly simulated before set-up

sheets and post process tool paths are produced to send to the

robot.

In many of these applications Robots provide a significant cost /

performance advantage over conventional milling machines and

routers as the working envelope of robot is far larger than that of

a similarly priced machine tool or router. The configuration of a

robot also means that the robot can easily rotate to allow the

machining of a number of similar or different parts arranged

radially around the robot, making it possible to load and unload

parts as the robot continues to work. Robots flexiblity means that

the same robot can be used to load and unload parts as well as

machine, trim, weld, inspect, scan or glue a part.

Robots have revolutionised a huge variety of different manufacturing processes,

however the programming of robots has historically been a slow and labour intensive process. This was not a

problem when the robots were simply repeating many thousands of times a process that could be programmed

using either a manual teach and learn approach or using a specialist offline robot programming application.

However over time robots have become more flexible and the processes they have become involved in more

complex. This, tied to the desire to introduce more flexible production facilities has driven the need to use

modern CADCAM tools to quickly and easily program robots offline.
