Abstract
The number of robot installations in industry has increased significantly over the past several years. To support planning of new complex robot applications, several offline programming and simulation systems have been developed.
The Institute for Tool Machines and Industrial Engineering (iwb) of the Technical University of Munich is developing its own offline programming and simulation system, called USIS (Universal Simulation System) (Wrba, 1990, Woenckhaus et al., 1993). The goal of the development is to create a system which, on the one hand, contains a precise model description of the work cell to simulate robot behaviour accurately. On the other hand, new programming and planning techniques will be implemented to reduce programming efforts significantly. This paper presents some results from this research work.
