Off-line programming
Another finesse is that it works off-line. The robot operator can test movements and build sequences directly in their laptop, without even having the robot online. As mentioned, KUKA.AppTech consists of a number of program modules that contain the functionality that is normally required by end users in most applications. Examples of this are PLC-integration, home operation after collision, automatic changing of load data to mention a few.
The smart programming concept uses knowledge and experience that KUKA has built up over the years, when the different industrial applications were formed. The control concept has been used to create the software’s modules.
Smart for experts too
But a more driven robot programmer need not feel themselves restricted by the prepared modules.
“The movement procedures and sequences can be expanded and programmed by anyone who wants to”, says Micael Amandusson, who explains that KUKA.AppTech is so much more than just easy for beginners.
“The program library has lots to offer for more experienced programmers. It also works well for more advanced solutions and gives great time savings”, he says.
