Calculate toolpath

An extensive range of toolpath strategies for milling, cutting, welding, additive, polishing, painting, stone roughing

Roughing toolpaths:

parallel, equidistant, high-speed, adaptive roughing, roughing plane, roughing rotary machining, hole machining, and many more.

Finishing toolpaths:

finishing waterline, plane, scallop (3D constant step-over), morph, rotary machining, 5D surfacing.

Contouring toolpaths:

2D, 3D, and 5D contouring.

Special toolpaths:

Stone roughing, welding, heat treatment, sculpture milling.

Optimize

Handle singularities, collisions, reach zone limits and redundant axes movements with a dedicated powerful tool: robot axis map

Axes available in robot axis map:

A6 (6th axis), rails, turn table, lead and lean angles.

What is shown on the map:

Out of reach, out of limits, singularities, collisions. Map also shows the toolpath with rapid and work feeds.

Automated:

Just push “Build automatically”. It works in most cases.

Precise control:

Edit any point of the toolpath with simulation preview in real time.

Simulate

Full robotic cell simulation. Material removal simulation.
Smooth and high resolution.

Full robotic cell simulation:

Robot, tables, rails, end effector, fences, fixtures, tool magazine and any other imported geometry is used for simulation.

Material removal, additive, painting:

Dedicated simulation modes for material removal, additive and painting for result control.

Launch control program

Post-processing, calibration and robot cell-creating tools.

Create your own robot cell kinematic model with the dedicated app Machine Maker:

Easy-to-use application for rapid SprutCAM-ready robotic cell creation. Included in SprutCAM installation package.

Calibrate TCP and Base:

Mobile application for quick and precise TCP calibration and transferring calibration data to SprutCAM.

Postprocess

Generic postprocessors for major robot manufacturers included: Kuka, Fanuc, Motoman, ABB, Staubli, Nachi and more. Order postprocessor customization from nearby SprutCAM dealer.

Robot programming demo

SprutCAM X Robot goes far beyond traditional robot simulation software.

It is a single unit for offline programming that includes:

  • toolpath calculation for any application;
  • simulation;
  • optimization for singularity and collision free movements;
  • post-processing.

Toolpaths are calculated in native 6-axis codes, and no transformations are required to go from 5 to 6 axes.

A comprehensive robot-specific feature pack is available with collision detection, singularities avoidance, and work zone limits detection.

Supported robot manufacturers

The SprutCAM Robot kinematic scheme library includes a wide range of robots from all major manufacturers:
  • Fanuc;
  • KUKA;
  • Staubli;
  • Yaskawa Motoman;
  • Toshiba;
  • Mitsubishi;
  • Nachi;
  • ABB;
  • and many more.

In addition, standard templates allow for the rapid creation of custom kinematic schemes for robots and robotic cells.

Robot Position

Robot programming for the SprutCAM Robot is performed with the robot’s position in space taken into account: floor/wall/shelf/ceiling mount, any position inside a cell is supported. Both “part to tool” and “tool to part” configurations are allowed.

Additional Axes

SprutCAM Robot supports simultaneous control of a robot and an unlimited number of linear and rotary positioning axes.

 

For example:
The robot can move simultaneously on a rail and do milling, or it can complete the continuous rotary machining of a part with a robot and a rotary table. The additional axes can be either controlled automatically using a set of rules or manually with the special “robot axes optimizer” feature.

Benefits

SprutCAM Robot is a CAD/CAM for Offline CNC programming of industrial robots and robot simulation software in one integrated package. Push your industrial robots programming workflow to the next level.

Avoid robot idle periods

Improved productivity from offline programming results in the reduction of robot idle periods and reduced programming costs.

Save time

It is much faster than programming by teaching, as no teaching points are required.

Additional axes are simple

Easy programming of robotic cells with rotary tables, robots on rail.

Let the computer do the dull work

Automatic optimization and search for collision-free motion.

Realistic and native

Realistic machining simulation and verification, plus generation of the robot’s native NC code.

Unrivaled workflow

Toolpath calculation, optimization, simulation, post-processing in one environment.

All toolpaths are generated to account for the specific robot’s kinematics. Each of the robot’s axes can be optimized either automatically or manually to extend the reach zone, avoid collisions, or improve machining conditions.
