Technology based Offline-Programming

The technology packages facilitate flexible and vendor-neutral robot programming. These packages not only support the process-specific structure of robot tracks, but also automatically define all process parameters and control commands.

In this way, FASTSUITE Edition 2 ensures consistently high program quality - regardless of the robot type used or the programming experience of the user. As a manufacturer-independent software provider, CENIT offers interfaces to all common robot and system manufacturers whose proprietary systems can be integrated into the 3D programming and simulation platform as virtual controllers. Despite this performance and the comprehensive simulation of all plant components and processes, the system is so simple and intuitive to operate that even inexperienced operators can generally use the program package without problems after a three-day training.

CENIT FASTSUITE is based on a unique concept which allows users to easily program robot operations or machine tools, making use of the process geometry which can be directly defined on the 3D CAD model. The process geometries can be points in case of i.e. spot spot welding, curves in case of laser cutting or surfaces in case of processes like painting or polishing.

In conjunction with the pre-defined technology packages, the creation of complete robot programs can be significantly simplified, compared to manual optimization. The different technology packages 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.
