Robotic Machining
Robotic workcells are a very affordable way to cover large, multi-axis work envelopes for a wide variety of relatively low-force machining functions, such as trimming and grinding, deburring, polishing, finishing, gluing and light cutting. NX CAM Robotic software lets you design, simulate, validate, optimize and offline program your industrial robots for those tasks.
NX CAM Robotics software lets you design, simulate, validate, optimize and offline program your industrial robots for machining-type tasks. This solution greatly increases the efficiency and quality of these high-precision, multiaxis robotic operations. Featuring the intuitive and widely-accepted NX™ software 3D environment, the software combines the simplicity of CNC programming with the power to accurately create, control and simulate complex robotic machining processes. Associative updates, a key benefit of the entire NX system, make it easy to accommodate change orders since the robotic programming can be refreshed when design changes occur.
