Offline Programming
Advancements in offline programming have made it possible to generate a program offline, download it to the system, and be operational in much less time than traditional online programming. One programmer is required versus multiple programmers teaching inside the work cell.
At DUO, we utilize advanced simulation software that creates a virtual 3-D model of the robotic system. Our customers provide their data and we generate programs that are ready for upload into real robotic environments.
Offline programming is also used for multiple pass milling. This is utilized for creating advanced fixtures for our customer parts.
