KUKA.Sim AddOn Part 1 Programming

In this video you will learn about KUKA robot language, the Robot Controller Simulation and expert programming in Visual Components Premium with the KUKA.Sim Add On. Configure your Tool_Data, Base_Data and signals. Calculate cycle times, analyse and optimize your program with the Tracing feature and data on energy consumption. And finally get guidance on exporting projects to KUKA.WorkVisual.

This lesson unlocks KUKA’s full potential, offering realistic cycle times, precise path planning, and KRL code without post-processors.
