All-in-one software combines robot programming with existing simulation software for digital gains

Visual Components has launched Robotics OLP; new software that allows improvements in robot utilisation and enhanced production efficiencies.

Tailored to accommodate the vast majority of industrial deployments and robot brands, users can benefit from reliable and accurate programming capabilities that are ten times faster than manual processes.

The platform is compatible with the primary robot and cobot brands, including 17 post-processors from companies including KUKA, ABB, YASKAWA and FANUC. And manufacturers can seamlessly transfer their robot programs from Visual Components Robotics OLP to physical robots on the shop floor.

Visual Components Robotics OLP has been brought to market at a time where robots are being under-utilised in the manufacturing sector, says the company. Time and labour-intensive processes, complex product mixes and skills shortages are persistent challenges that have hindered innovation and blocked progress in digital transformation strategies.

Alongside reduced downtime and complexity involved with robotic deployments, a unified solution provides the basis for employees to be trained across a number of disciplines. This encourages upskilling in the Industry 5.0 era and an opportunity to drive technical skills among the new generation entering the sector. Rather than eliminate jobs, the technology serves to fill skills gaps.

The introduction of Visual Components Robotics OLP follows the company’s acquisition of Delfoi Robotics in October last year, an offline robot programming (OLP) solutions provider for the manufacturing industry. Its technology is now seamlessly integrated with Visual Components’ existing simulation solutions.
