Quick and easy programming for small batch sizes and permanent program adaptions

Glueing and sealing operations become increasingly common – either as an innovative assembly and fastening technology, or for efficient corrosion protection. Typically, robots are equipped with spray nozzles to dispense the material on the workpiece, or the robot carries the workpiece to a fixed nozzle. Because sealant lines are complex 3D contours, a manual teaching or even a simple CAD-to-Path algorithm is not enough to achieve perfect results efficiently.

Very often, the sealing areas are difficult to reach, and robot motions are prone to collisions. FASTSUITE, a true 3D simulation and path planning software, is helping to achieve high-quality trajectories for perfect application results, and safe and collision-free robot motions.

Industry support

Gluing as a joining method is particularly well-suited for the dynamic stresses of combining different materials. In the final assembly of vehicle production highly viscous materials are used to permanently bond parts and components of different characteristics.

Webinar Replay - Arc Welding & Digital Continuity

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.

Webinar Replay: Automation Design, Layout and Resource Planning

This webinar replay will showcase a typical 3D cell layout build during a live demonstration.
The instructor will use typical customer input (product data, tooling information, stipulations such as available floor space and cycle time requirements) and build an automation system in FASTSUITE Edition 2.
Reach studies, cycle time estimates and scope changes will be demonstrated and will trigger several iterations steps, adjusting the work cell to its final layout.
