Description
Summary:Currently, programming a robot is time-consuming both online and offline. To address this challenge, a novel approach is applied to generate the robot program of an industrial robot automatically. Robot program blocks are generated based on disassembly information from the CAD product model and the product model itself. For this purpose, the robot manufacturer-independent robot offline programming software "Octopuz" is used. Furthermore, the focus of the presented approach is on the two fundamental process types, "pick & place" and "unscrewing", to validate the feasibility of the proposed method.
