Finishing Copilot

You don't need extensive knowledge of robotics to use Finishing Copilot. Its intuitive programming interface guides you towards the efficient completion of a finishing task.

Finishing Copilot

  • Save programming time
  • Generate a finishing trajectory in minutes
  • Compensate for wear and tear on external tools
  • Set up an external end-effector point
  • Use the product easily, whatever your skill level

        Features

        • Set up an external end-effector point 
        • Apply a contact offset
        • Generate finishing paths with fewer than 10 waypoints
        • Achieve precision to within 0.2 mm (like Universal Robots)
        • Look for surfaces
        • Perform various types of insertions
        • Control the robot with one hand
        • Follow complex trajectories
        • Modify trajectories point by point
        • Apply a constant force and define the stiffness on each axis
        • Reset sensor values

        COMPENSATE FOR WEAR AND TEAR ON EXTERNAL TOOLS

         

        The contact offset node uses a point on the external tool as a reference for measuring wear. The contact shift allows the exact position of the tool to be checked at any time. If there is the slightest change, the robot program adjusts all relevant parameters.

        GENERATE A FINISHING TRAJECTORY IN MINUTES

        Program complex finishing paths using less than 10 waypoints. Finishing Copilot generates a complete trajectory and applies a constant force to each cycle on flat (4 waypoints), curved (6 waypoints) and spherical (9 waypoints) surfaces.

        ESTABLISH AN EXTERNAL POINT OF CONTACT

        Finishing Copilot lets you program an external end-effector point. The software lets the robot know that the finishing tool is external to the robot, unlike most collaborative robot applications. The finishing task is then executed: the robot brings the part to the external end-effector point.

        VALIDATE PART LOCATION

        The contact shift node marks your part with reference points to validate its location. If there's the slightest change, the robot program adjusts all relevant parameters.
