Robotic Simulation and Off-line Programming: From Academia to Industry
 
Robotic simulation and off-line programming (OLP) are powerful tools for saving integrators and end-users time and money when designing a work cell. The ability to analyze how a work cell will behave before investing time and money on equipment makes for a smoother transition from concept to reality. “Simulation and OLP allows integrators to study multiple scenarios of a work cell before any metal is committed. Mistakes commonly made in designing a work cell can be made in advance and studied,” says Michael Jacobs, President and Chief Executive Officer of Applied Manufacturing Technologies Inc. (AMT, Orion, Michigan).
