New Software Features Make Programming Industrial Robots Simpler
January 1, 2020
OCTOPUZ Inc. offers its latest software update, OCTOPUZ 2.2. Building on OCTOPUZ 2.1 release in January 2019, which introduced the PathFinder suite of tools, this latest update offers new features and enhancements designed to give users a greater automatic experience, an improved workflow and a wider range of support.
"OCTOPUZ 2.2 greatly reduces the need for manual weld adjustments to be made due to the addition of automatic Collision Avoidance via Tool Axis Control, a new default setting that uses an algorithm to calculate the optimal tool position along a weld path," said a company spokesperson. The Merge or Split Point and Path Statements feature can also improve user control by enabling users to either quickly modify several statement points together or easily split either an imported path statement or a generated path statement to view and modify individual points.
Several feature improvements engineered to save users valuable programming time, such as a Variable Workflow enhancement that provides a more natural workflow experience when programming weld applications. Likewise, for users with Panasonic robots, 3D Touch Sense support improves weld accuracy by enabling 3-point touch sensing in the XYZ directions. Support for Universal Robots e-Series robots and the addition of a French language user interface further extend the reach of the OCTOPUZ software.
"The release of OCTOPUZ 2.2 shows the company's commitment to making robot programming so simple even a non-expert could do it. The new features and enhancements enable users to have more control and greater flexibility when programming complex applications," said a company spokesperson.
