I am excited to announce the release of a new role for the R2025xGA. Robot Material Handling Programmer (RMH) provides a complete solution for robotics material handling processes including palletizing.

This first drop includes an important new user interface to drastically simplify the user experience by reducing the number of actions to create and simulate a robot material handling work-cell.

 Here are some highlights :

• Saves time by automatically generating the tasks needed for the conveyor, sensors, and robot. No additional programming is required.
• Provides full capability to create and modify pallets and pallet layers. Standard pallets are included or user can create their own custom pallets. Users can also define the layout of each layer on the pallet.
• Once the conveyor, Product and Pallet are defined, the robot Tasks are generated automatically, – including Grab and Release instructions as well as robot interaction with the sensors through I/Os
• Provide off-line programming capabilities to program robots directly in the native robot language.
• The Material Handling Assistant keeps the user on-track with an intuitive interface that shows which steps have been completed and which steps have yet to be done. This breakthrough interface avoids confusion and reduces user interaction.

I let you see a short video showing this new role :
