After a few questions about offline simulation platform of Yaskawa Motoman Robotics which is called MotoSimVRC, I decided to write a quick post to collect the answers. So I listed the questions below and tried to explain briefly.  How to get  MotoSimVRC? You can find the latest version(and older versions, too) of the  MotoSimVRC from this link . Important note: You have to register this site with your company e-mail only. After applying for being a member to website, you need to have at least two days for verification(it was like that when I have done). In addition to that, this membership has 2 years duration.

    I would like mention about movement principle of robots and some important motion types. So let's start with the Movement Principle of industrial robots. Movement Principle      Industrial robots aim to go from one point to the specific position which can be named as " pose to pose movement ". It means clearly " move from the current position to the new position ". All story starts with this motion concept. Besides that, robots make some special tasks using industrial equipments(we can call them as tool in some states) such as material handling, palletizing/depalletizing, painting, arc welding/spot welding on the specified path. Robot programming includes some special robot movement commands and when moving on the path robot run special commands to control the environment such as PLC, sensors, actuators and valves. Path can be explained as " The continuous locus of positions(or points in three dimensional space) traversed by the tool center point and d...
