Cobot Applications

Graphical user interface for every robot – drag&bot OS
SCENARIO DESIGNER – 3D models of the robot cell and the workpieces can be added here to the visualization.
BUILDER – Applications can be created from predefined function blocks using drag and drop.
WIZARDS – Graphical operating and input aids: Users can adapt function blocks to the specific requirements of their application without expert knowledge.
OPERATOR COCKPIT – This is where the created applications are executed. One click takes you back to the builder and you can extend and optimize the application.
