Time to market

Start programming before the system is installed:

Motion programming I/O programming

Enables parallell workflow between you and your sub suppliers

Less capital tied up!

Shorter time to market and quicker start-up!

From six months to six days…

Situation: Contract manufacturer plasma

spraying details to make them heat-resistant

Online programming had been going on for half a year

The customer did not approve the part quality

Benefits: Higher part quality

With RobotStudio the CAD data was utilized to quickly generate a very accurate program

Cut programming time

A new program was created with RobotStudio in half a day

Reachability RobotStudio showed that the robot could be placed in a better position in relation to the part

System integrator improved comprehension

Situation:

A system integrator is quoting a robot system

Before presenting the offer to the customer a simulation was built in RobotStudio

RobotStudio showed that the robot could not reach as required

Benefit:

Improved comprehension.The realistic simulation prevented a costly mistake

Large sub-supplier quicker startup-time

Situation:

Sub-supplier welding big cabins for trucks

Required offline programming to minimize disturbance

A competitor got the initial order but failed to offline program the station

Benefits:

Reduced risk the integrator knew they would succeed where the competitor failed

Shorten startup-time at customer site

The ABB solution was awarded the next order!

Subcontractor cut time-to-market

Situation:

Automotive subcontractor that needed to shorten time-to-market and increase the product quality

Benefits:

Cut time-to-market by 50% when using RobotStudio for more exact robot programs

Cut programming time 50% programming offline compared to online “RobotStudio is very easy to work with

and very exact”, says Max Mortensen,Core Process Responsible at Fuel Tech.

Small company cut programming time

Situation:

Small company welding and cutting bullet traps for shooting ranges

Benefits:

Reduced risk RobotStudio can project the cycle time for each component, so bigger and more complicated projects can be planned.

Cut programming time

Torsten has become a better robot programmer, he dares to test different solutions in RobotStudio

“RobotStudio cuts programming time by 50%”, says Torsten Werner, CEO at Comtri.
