…Process Simulate, which the company says will simplify robot programming and workcell coordination by automating motion programming. Manufacturers and integrators will be able to program, simulate, and validate automation, which will simplify the digital commissioning process. According to the company, multi-robot workcells take prohibitive amounts of calendar and scarce engineering time in the simulation phase before going to production. Once deployed, they are inflexible, requiring significant re-programming for every modification. This has made multi-robot workcells cost-prohibitive for most companies. Siemens’ Tecnomatix Process Simulate, coupled with the Realtime Controller and RapidPlan software, can simplify the programming of automated robotic processes, reducing…
