MotoSim® EG-VRC (Motoman Simulator Enhanced Graphics – Virtual Robot Control) is a
comprehensive software package that provides accurate 3D simulation of robot cells. This powerful
simulation software can be used to optimize robot and equipment placement, as well as to perform
collision detection, reach modeling and cycle calculations. It also provides accurate off-line
programming of complex systems. Virtual Robot Controller capability means that the simulation
software now operates and displays the actual programming pendant interface for the DX100 and
NX100 controllers. The VRC supports standard INFORM (robot language) instructions, and can
completely simulate the DX100 and NX100 controller software in the PC environment, including system
confguration functions and condition fle editing.
- Provides a display of the DX100 or
NX100 robot controller pendant
on a PC.
- Robot movement is controlled
through the pendant display.
- Users can import CAD fles in
.hmf, .hsf or .3ds formats.
Teach Pendant Programming
- Whether a programmer is using
a teach pendant on a DX100
or NX100 controller or using
MotoSim EG-VRC on a PC – the
interface display is exactly the same.
Steps used to accomplish actions
in the “virtual” world of the simulator
are identical to the actions required
in the actual (real) world.
Using a standard 3D graphics
engine provides ability to add
markups/comments to robot
simulation and accurately measure
distances. Ability to create
permanent measurement lines is
a big advantage during the cell
layout process.
MotoSim EG-VRC reduces
programming time, thus increasing
uptime of the production equipment.
New parts can be programmed
off-line before production begins,
and existing robot programs can
be modifed to increase effciency
and reduce cycle time – without
sacrifcing production schedules.
- High accuracy allows programs to
be tested on the PC instead of on
the robot system, reducing robot
downtime.
- Enables user to make changes to
improve robot performance.
- Detailed path calculation function
plots robot’s trajectory to simplify
program verifcation .
- Creates process angles, allowing
user to create programs that
maintain the robot’s tool orientation
in relation to an uneven surface,
such as a sharply angled part, or
gradually changing shapes, such as
propellers or motorcycle gas tanks.
- Robot paths, speeds and other
program data – such as tool center
points, user frames, and I/O
monitors – can be defned on the PC.
- User can move the virtual robot,
enter the data to create a robot
program, and download it to the
robot controller.
- When Motoman’s MotoCal
®
software and optional flters
are used, programs created in
MotoSim EG-VRC can be down-
loaded to the robot controller with
minimal or no touch-up.
Sample system cells are
available on the installation CD
and accessory parts.
- Enhanced multiple robot
control.
- Independent/coordinated
motion functions.
- External axis control and
coordination.
- Macro command.
- Relative job.
- Collision detection.
- Same easy-to-use INFORM
language instructions as the
robot controller.
- Can be used to minimize
fxturing errors.
- Can be used to reduce robot
installation time.
- User-defnable view.
- Cycle time and reach analysis.
- Accurate simulation and off-line
programming of complex robotic
systems.
- Provides “real” robot experience
while programming off-line on a PC.
- Improved simulation of advanced
control capabilities between
robots and external devices.
