SprutCAM Expands Online Robot Programming Library
The online robot library now includes 675 components from major robotics companies.
SprutCAM X Robot software, developed by SprutCAM Tech Ltd. in Limassol, Cyprus, is designed to provide a convenient programming environment that closely simulates the interaction between an engineer, robot, tool and product.
To develop a control program for an industrial robot and simulate all robot functions in a virtual environment, a technologist-programmer needs to create a real-world cell with robot equipment and production components in a CAM system or integrate a cell from external software. The Machine Maker add-on, a zero-code robot cell builder for SprutCAM X, enables manufacturers and integrators to quickly create an accurate digital twin of any robotic cell using an online library that supports a large selection of industrial robot brands.
The online robot library now includes 675 components from brands such as Kuka, FANUC, ABB, TeknoMotor, AMB (Kress), SCHUNK, OnRobot, Joulin, Schmalz, Regal, Universal Robots, Güdel, Meltio and more. Featured components are robots, including heavy-duty and cobots; single-axis, two-axis and three-axis positioners; actuators, including moving grippers (end effectors) railing; fixed objects such as tables, controllers and fencing.
The development team at SprutCAM Tech keeps the library up-to-date with popular equipment. Manufacturers and integrators can request to add a 3D model of a robot or another piece of equipment to the MachineMaker online library by emailing info@sprutcam.com.
