ABB RobotStudio® Use-Cases

ABB's RobotStudio is a powerful simulation and offline programming software tool that can be applied to a variety of industrial automation applications. Its offline programming capability, realistic simulations, and add-on features make it an essential tool for maximizing return on investment and optimizing robot systems without disrupting production.

One of the main applications of RobotStudio is in the automotive industry, where it is used to program and optimize robot systems for assembly, painting, and welding applications. The software's virtual commissioning feature enables the testing of the complete logic and safety of the cell virtually before installation, saving time and reducing the risk of issues arising during production.

RobotStudio is also used in the food and beverage industry, where it can be used for tasks such as palletizing, packaging, and machine tending. Its virtual twin feature enables the real-time simulation of the production system, allowing users to try changes and perform optimization in the virtual world without affecting production.

In the pharmaceutical industry, RobotStudio can be used for tasks such as pick and place, packaging, and quality control. Its stop position simulation feature visualizes the optimal breaking distance of the robot, reducing the footprint of cells and enabling faster and more effective virtual and physical commissioning.

RobotStudio is also widely used in the electronics industry, where it is applied to tasks such as soldering, pick and place, and assembly. The software's augmented reality feature allows for the visualization of robot solutions by overlaying the modeled solution over the real-life production environment as a hologram.
