New Stäubli Robotics Suite 2016
Stäubli announces Stäubli Robotics Suite 2016
PC software suite for robotics application development and maintenance
Stäubli Robotics is a leading manufacturer of 4 and 6 axis robots designed for all industrial sectors. Its product range also features a wide range of software solutions.
Stäubli Robotics Suite is an integrated Development, Simulation and Maintenance environment running in a Windows® platform, which facilitates the development of robotic applications. It is the ideal companion to various methods of programming a Stäubli robot, VAL 3, the interpreted programming language particularly well-suited for integrators and OEMs, VALproducts solutions, ready to use industry solutions adapted for end users and uniVAL drive, a “ready to plug” solution to drive Stäubli robots with generic industrial motion controllers, perfectly adapted for machine builders.
Stäubli Robotics Suite 2016 brings major new features such as parts handling, automatic calculation of payload parameters, adding additional loads on the robot arm, connection of I/Os between the robot and the virtual scene, video recording and many more.
Intuitive yet powerful, Stäubli Robotics Suite 2016 includes two integrated modules in a single tool : Development Studio and Maintenance Studio.
Development Studio is a software workbench for robotics application development and 3D simulation. Built-in functions include file transfer between the development PC and the robot controller, visualization of robot arms in 3D scene as well execution or modification of VAL 3 programs. In addition, it features a powerful VAL 3 program editor, bringing high end functionalities such as 3D viewing within programming tools, online debugging, auto document formatting.
Maintenance Studio is designed for maintenance personnel and provides advanced functionalities to perform diagnostic operations. It features full remote access to the controller with 3D visualization of the robot system. The robot can be controlled from a remote PC with live visual feedback of any operation performed on the teach pendant by the operator. A 3D scene is available in visualization mode, with the ability to load a 3D robot cell previously created in Development Studio.
