Offline Programming
FASTSUITE's mature technology packages not only support process-specific generation of robot toolpaths, they also automatically define process parameters and control commands. This ensures consistently high programming quality, independently of the deployed robot type or the end-user’s programming experience.
Technology and rule-based offline programming
FASTSUITE s based on a unique software architecture and concept which allows users to easily program robots and/or machine tools, making use of the process geometry, defined on the work-pieces and the available technology packages. The process geometries can be points in case of i.e. spot welding, curves in case of laser cutting or surfaces in case of processes like painting or polishing.
FASTSUITE Offline Programming selects automatically the corresponding technology package, based on the tool mounted on the robot for programming. The different technology packages will provide a GUI customized directly for the particular technology and will compute the tool path in a way that it is already optimized for a given technology, i.e. like arc welding or laser cutting and which will contain already all process specific commands for the controller.
Key Features:
- Manual teach-in of robot positions
- Definition of events and commands (open, close, …) for the integration of handling tasks (loading/unloading, …)
- Manual optimization and modification of the thought positions
- Creation or importation of process geometries
- Program download
- Multi-unit support add-on will enable users to program I/O signal communication between multiple control units
- Manage installations with master-slave robots or with robots working at the same time on a workpiece

What if we told you that despite your automated production, you are still far from realizing the full potential of your robot cells?
Due to the lack of interfacing between different CAD design systems and robot offline programming (OLP), information defined in design is often not efficiently transferred to the OLP system.
