Flexible, intuitive robotics
for system integrators
& mechanical engineers
With drag&bot, you as a system integrator or (special) machine builder enable your customers to easily operate and flexibly use robot systems. At the same time, you become more efficient in planning, integration and programming.
We show you in a free online demo how you can benefit from drag&bot!
Challenges in deploying robot applications
Customers ask for flexibility
Customers themselves want to integrate new product versions and adapt existing programs
Missing know-how
Robot experts are hard to find / keep, expensive and rarely available
Hardware dependency
There are no standards, employees need expensive and manufacturer-specific training
Our solution: The drag&bot framework
Easy to operate
The easy to use GUI allows customers to teach-in new parts themselves
Easy to put into operation
No robot programmer is required for on-site deployment
short time-to-market
drag&bot can be quickly integrated into existing plant concepts and customized
Acquire new customers
With drag&bot you can finally reach and convince those customers for whom flexible refitting is essential
Use hardware independent
Select the most suitable hardware for the application without additional effort for the customer
More volume at no extra cost
The effort for programming and commissioning of robot systems is significantly reduced and simplified
Automation in 3 steps
1. Plan
Import CAD models of cell and gripper in 3D-environment
Check accessibility and cycle time
Prepare programs
Create application specific functions
2. Build
Easy integration of robots and peripherals
Create and configure applications from predefined function blocks
Enable programs for operators and customize the HMI
3. Operate
Parameterize and execute applications
Monitor the system using various KPIs
Guided move to safe positions
Interact with the system via user dialogs
Partner success story:
Automated sheet metal bending cell of Placke GmbH
Application and benefits
Automated sheet metal processing – especially suitable for small lot sizes
Robot removes sheets from stacks, positions sheets in edge bench according to the part, starts the bending process and deposits finished parts
Thanks to the graphical user interface, customers can independently teach-in new parts in a few minutes
New customer segment can be addressed: Customers with automation needs of the plant and high flexibility in robot control
Used functions of drag&bot
Predefined processes, which the customer can adapt to specific parts
Selection dialogs and parameter inputs, e.g. for the definition of gripping points or for selecting from which stacks parts will be gripped
Function blocks for bending, which can be combined part-specifically by drag-and-drop
Predefined positions and trajectories for collision-free movement of the robot
Broad support for robots and peripherals
drag&bot supports a large number of different robots, almost all grippers and force sensors as well as the most common image processing systems and communication interfaces.
Use drag&bot to save valuable time when integrating grippers, cameras or PLC systems. With minimal effort, your hardware is connected to drag&bot and you can get started immediately.
Use the hardware that best suits your application!
drag&bot Core
COMPONENT MANAGER – Here the user configures the connected hardware. The installation of the corresponding drivers takes place automatically in the background.
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.
RUN VIEW – The created applications are executed here. With one click you return to the Builder and can extend and optimize the application.
