SprutCAM for Robots

 

 

Calculate toolpath

 
An extensive range of toolpath strategies for milling, cutting, welding, additive, polishing, painting, stone roughing

Roughing toolpaths:

parallel, equidistant, high-speed, adaptive roughing, roughing plane, roughing rotary machining, hole machining, and many more.

Finishing toolpaths:

finishing waterline, plane, scallop (3D constant step-over), morph, rotary machining, 5D surfacing.

Contouring toolpaths:

2D, 3D, and 5D contouring.

Special toolpaths:

Stone roughing, welding, heat treatment, sculpture milling.

Optimize

Handle singularities, collisions, reach zone limits and redundant axes movements with a dedicated powerful tool: robot axis map

Axes available in robot axis map:

A6 (6th axis), rails, turn table, lead and lean angles.

What is shown on the map:

Out of reach, out of limits, singularities, collisions. Map also shows the toolpath with rapid and work feeds.

Automated:

Just push “Build automatically”. It works in most cases.

Precise control:

Edit any point of the toolpath with simulation preview in real time.

Simulate

Full robotic cell simulation. Material removal simulation.
Smooth and high resolution.

Full robotic cell simulation:

Robot, tables, rails, end effector, fences, fixtures, tool magazine and any other imported geometry is used for simulation.

Material removal, additive, painting:

Dedicated simulation modes for material removal, additive and painting for result control.

 

Launch control program

Post-processing, calibration and robot cell-creating tools.

Create your own robot cell kinematic model with the dedicated app Machine Maker:

Easy-to-use application for rapid SprutCAM-ready robotic cell creation. Included in SprutCAM installation package.

Calibrate TCP and Base:

Mobile application for quick and precise TCP calibration and transferring calibration data to SprutCAM.

Postprocess

Generic postprocessors for major robot manufacturers included: Kuka, Fanuc, Motoman, ABB, Staubli, Nachi and more. Order postprocessor customization from nearby SprutCAM dealer.

Why SprutCAM Robot?

 

SprutCAM Robot goes far beyond traditional robot simulation software.

It is a single unit for offline programming that includes:

  • toolpath calculation for any application;
  • simulation;
  • optimization for singularity and collision free movements;
  • post-processing.

Toolpaths are calculated in native 6-axis codes, and no transformations are required to go from 5 to 6 axes.

A comprehensive robot-specific feature pack is available with collision detection, singularities avoidance, and work zone limits detection.
