Enhanced Robot Simulation Software



FANUC has announced the release of ROBOGUIDE Version 10, the latest and most advanced iteration of its offline robot programming and simulation software. ROBOGUIDE allows users to create, program and simulate robotic workcells in 3D without the need for physical prototypes, reducing costs and improving accuracy in automation planning.

With the launch of this next-generation software, FANUC is introducing several upgrades, including:

  • New virtual reality capabilities: Users can now experience workcells in a fully immersive environment, improving line of sight and spatial awareness. This enables engineers and operators to interact with automation designs in a more intuitive and insightful way with virtual reality playback and walk through.
  • High-performance 64-bit architecture: ROBOGUIDE is now a 64-bit application, offering higher performance, increased content capacity and improved processing power for complex automation systems.
  • Modernized user interface: Featuring a ribbon-style toolbar, floating and docking windows and improved graphics, ROBOGUIDE V10 makes navigation more intuitive and efficient. Using a new drag-and-drop tool, users can quickly locate and define robots.
  • Enhanced support for native CAD import: Simplifying integration and design processes, ROBOGUIDE now supports the import of many more native CAD formats, making it easier to import, adjust and optimize automation layouts.

"With the release of our enhanced ROBOGUIDE V10, we are delivering a smarter, more powerful simulation tool that meets the evolving needs of the automation industry," said Eric Potter, General Manager, Robot Application Segment, at FANUC America. "Across nearly every industry, this immersive simulation software allows manufacturers to effectively visualize work cell effectiveness before actual installation, without the physical need or expense of a prototype set-up."

ROBOGUIDE V10 is now available to users alongside the previous version, sharing a single license so FANUC customers can take advantage of the latest advancements in robotic simulation.
