RobotStudio®

 

The world's most used offline programming tool for robotics

Offline programming is the best way to maximize return on investment for robot systems. ABB's simulation and offline programming software, RobotStudio, allows robot programming to be done on a PC in the office without shutting down production, this allows you to perform tasks such as training, programming and optimization. The tool is built on the ABB Virtual Controller, an exact copy of the real software that runs your robots in production. This allows very realistic simulations to be performed, using real robot programs and configuration files identical to those used on the shop floor.

Key benefits

Maximum productivity. Program and test in a 3D environment an exact copy of your production cell without disturbing ongoing production.
Flexibility. Quickly plan and design new robotic solutions to repurpose facilities for product modifications. 
Fast time-to-market. Reduce downtimes to zero and commissioning times from days to hours.
Sustainability. Up-front robotics simulation and process optimization leads to minimal energy usage and waste.

 

An introduction to RobotStudio features

Virtual Meetings

Is a collaboration feature allowing to share the digital robot solutions in web meetings. The participants are immersed in the virtual room, using a VR headset connected to RobotStudio, where the RobotStudio station can be shared for making design reviews and sales proposals without travelling​
Digital Twin

is a concept to monitor and optimize the automation solution without disturbing the ongoing production. It enables real-time simulation of the production system , like a digital shadow, allowing the users to try changes and do optimization in the virtual world without affecting the production.​
Virtual Commissioning

ABBs virtual commissioning solutions speed up commissioning by simulating an exact replica of the production cell in RobotStudio so that all technical issues can be solved in advance. RobotStudio allows to connect to PLCs and other external devices to fully virtually test the complete logic and safety of the cell prior to installing the physical line.​
Stop position simulation​

Is a feature that visualizes the optimal breaking distance. It simulated the stop position of the robot with millisecond precision for easier use of SafeMove, reduced footprint of cells and for faster and more effective virtual and physical commissioning​
