ROBOT WELDING

Our primary process is robot welding. We have extensive experience and many references in Denmark and abroad. Visual Components Robotics OLP (former Delfoi) also originated from welding, which makes it the leading OLP platform within robot welding.

Visual Components Robotics OLP

VC OLP is a parametric and feature-based offline programming software. Based on selected parameters and features, the program can effectively utilize the features of the 3D CAD model and the internal WPS (Welding Procedure Specification) database of the software. The software creates accurate, error-free and homogeneous and high-quality welding programs regardless of the robot brand or model thanks to VC OLP's unique, universal robot code support.

Program generation is fast and faultless. Programming downtime shrinks substantially compared to the downtime that would normally be needed when programming a robot online by teaching.

Fast and easy: semi-automatic programming with user friendly user interface.
High quality programs: integrated quality control and WPS (Welding Procedure Specification).
Accurate tool paths: advanced calibration tools and trajectory management.
Generic: supports ABB, Fanuc, KUKA, Yaskawa Motoman, Kawasaki, Panasonic, IGM, CLOOS, Reis, Universal Robots etc.

Simulation features

A wide-ranging component library for use in cell layout-modelling - over 1000 default robot and weld-positioner models and dozens of smart, parametric components, such as conveyor belts, light curtains and safety barriers.
Automatic detection of collisions and "near-miss" incidents with visual feedback.
Cell layout planning and fast positioning of components within a cell.
Review of the robot's working envelope.
Automatic detection of violations of axis limits with visual feedback.
Automatic detection of robot singularity points.
Fast and effective simulation of created welding programs, either in real time or set to a variable speed.
Option to save the simulated program in either 3D-PDF or AVI format and easily share the file with others.
