Intelligent offline 3D robot simulation with ROBOGUIDE

Intelligent 3-D robot simulation

FANUC ROBOGUIDE is a robot simulator that simulates both the robot’s motion and application commands, significantly reducing the time it takes to create new motion setups. To ensure minimal impact on production, cells can be designed, tested and modified entirely offline. To save 3-D modelling time, part models can be imported from a PC as CAD data. The robot simulation software’s extensive library also allows users to select and modify parts and dimensions as required. Designed to be intuitive and extremely easy to use, ROBOGUIDE requires very little, if any, training. It is also available with dedicated tools for specific applications.

Robot modelling and control for fast, trouble-free setups

Evaluate cells and cycle times

To ensure optimal cell design, ROBOGUIDE lets you model cells and select the most suitable robot for your application and setup. With an internal virtual controller cycle times can be calculated and validated both quickly and accurately.

Pre-programming saves you time

To save time, ROBOGUIDE lets you pre-program robots prior to installation in a cell as well as view and confirm robot trajectories and Dual Check Safety (DCS) parameters before downloading the programs to the real robot.

Set up and test complex systems

ROBOGUIDE’s modifiable templates make setting up auxiliary axes, positioners and multigroup machines easy. These can then be tested for functionality to confirm cycle times, duty and power.

Import CAD files

The ability to import CAD models of existing parts, fixtures and grippers enables you to build layouts and evaluate systems. Automatic program generation reduces the need for manual programming.

Workcell Wizard and Browser

For trouble-free work cell development, the Wizard guides you through processes such as robot model, control and software selection. Using the Browser provides quick access to work cell configuration details, allowing you to expand, check and modify them.

Built-in CAD models

Instant access to many commonly used fixtures, tables, conveyors and end-of-arm tools. Additional 3D shapes are provided as modelling tools to create custom machines, tools and/or fixtures. You can build and save your everyday CAD library.

Dedicated robot simulation tools for motion applications

ROBOGUIDE is also available with a number of application-specific software tools. Whether it's deburring, handling, paint spraying, palletising or welding, every single motion-planning tool has been designed to improve productivity by eliminating the risk of error and reducing setup and cycle times.

ChamferingPRO

A step-by-step navigator lets you generate and simulate deburring programmes automatically. To generate the deburring paths, just click the lines to be deburred on the 3D CAD data.

HandlingPRO

Simulate and test material handling processes and conduct feasibility studies for robotic applications without the physical need and expense of a prototype work cell setup.

Robot cell simulation without downtime

Onboard robot library

ROBOGUIDE’s onboard library provides instant access to any FANUC robot. For complete system modelling and simulation, each robot comes with a Virtual Robot Controller and 3-D CAD model.

No-risk cell upgrades

Because new cell layouts, models and programs can be generated offline, creating new setups has absolutely no impact on production.

Improvement without downtime

Enhancing and debugging can take place with production running and at zero risk of downtime.

Fast and cost-efficient troubleshooting

Loading an All of Above Backup into ROBOGUIDE makes reproducing and solving errors easy.

Full process verification functionality

The robot simulator contains a full package of process verification tools including motion, execution and cycle time validation as well as collision detection.

Cell calibration

Allows you to calibrate fixtures, obstacles, machine objects, and parts that are associated with fixtures. You can teach in 3-D.
