import location information

Hello,
 

I'm starting up to work on RobotStudio and didn't know how to import positions. Could anybody help, please?

 

I created a cell in Robcad 8.0 and would like to use the location informations from there in RobotStudio 5.12.02. Is there any posibility to import, like as csv-file or so on?

    Hi,
    Normally you import positions via RAPID (ABBs robot program language). So if you can export to RAPID from Robcad, start a Virtual Controller in RS and go to Offline and import a program module with your positions (robtarget data), then use "Synchronize to Station" to synch. a routine with move instructions that use your positions to the station.

     

    I have also made an Add-In that import different file formats with coordinates (.cls, .nc and .crd so far) to RS and convert them to targets. So if you mail me (anders.spaak@se.abb.com) a file you have exported from Robcad, I will see if it's possible to add that to my Add-In.
    Best regards,
