Building of Simulation Layouts
Offline Programming, simulation, commissioning and other downstream processes require a realistic simulation model that represents the robot cell in all necessary details. CENIT FASTSUITE is supporting users to easily create and manage layouts from 3D CAD data by defining its kinematics and even the simulation behavior. If any component is missing, it can be quickly added an included into the simulation layout.
Efficient and intuitive tools to build simulation layouts from 3D CAD
Perfect Layouts are Preconditions for Successful OLP Projects
CENIT FASTSUITE offers intuitive tools and functions to build layouts from library components, or to convert static 3D CAD data into simulation layouts, no matter if OLP work-cells with single robots or multi-robot installations are required.
In addition to the layout building functionality, the "concept planner" products also provide the entire simulation and offline programming infrastructure. This enables users to immediately perform reachability studies and layout validations.
Key Features
- “Drag & Snap” functions to position resources and to connect resources geometrically and logically
- Simulation of processes within the layout: dynamic resource simulation, simple teaching of robots, collision detection
- CAD Import and Export
- Extensive components library: robots, machines, PLC, etc.

Building your own components with CENIT FASTSUITE
Robot systems and production cells are built with a great variety of components. Not only machine-tools, robots, parts, fixtures and tools are used, but also all the safety and auxiliary equipment such as fences, doors, switches, sensors, conveyors, boxes and many more. To enable a realistic simulation, the digital factory requires a virtual copy of all these components, with exactly the same behavior than in reality.
CENIT FASTSUITE is designed to enable users, to easily create and manage all these components, including their geometry, kinematics and even logical behavior.
CENIT FASTSUITE distinguishes between different resource types, such as production resources, controllers and workpieces. In addition to other resource types, workpieces also include their exact mathematical description to ensure the computation of high quality toolpaths directly from the CAD data.
Key Features:
- Creation and modification of resources as simulation component
- Kinematic definition
- Adapter definition, both mechanical adapters and electrical adapters
- Definition and modification of tools
- Tool adapter, tool behavior and cable definition
- Tool center point definition
- Creation and modification of controllers
