MotoSim EG is an off-line programming and real time 3D simulation tool for MOTOMAN robots. The language used is INFORM, and it is possible to open robot programs made for ERC-, MRC-, XRC- or NX100 controller. MotoSim EG comes with a library of MOTOMAN robots and tools. The core graphics engine is the powerful HOOPS 3D, also used in many leading CAD/CAM products.
All INFORM-commands can be used for robot programming off-line, although certain commands like``Search``or ``ComarcOn``are not actually executed in the simulation. The simulation makes it possible to calculate cycle times; detect collision risks and visualize the robot`s path. With MotoSim EG it is possible to export information as html-code. This makes it possible to look at 3D models in a web browser such as Explorer without MotoSim software. Other programs can share information with MotoSim (OLE), which means that it is possible e.g. to create new software with C++. |
