DENSO Introduces New Version of WINCAPS III Offline Programming Software
LONG BEACH, Calif. - DENSO announced an updated version of its WINCAPS III offline programming software, which saves valuable development time by allowing a robot to be programmed on an offline computer. The software also enables remote monitoring of workcell operations via realtime I/O status indicators and detailed control logs.
Among the most powerful WINCAPS III features is its 3-D simulation package, which allows users to quickly and easily lay out an entire automation workcell in a virtual environment. The new version employs more of the robot's native command language, speeding up the process; gives a more accurate cycle-time representation; and conveniently allows users to record the simulation session and save it as an AVI file for later reference.
A new Easy Teach feature lets users move the robot to a particular point by simply clicking on the surface of the virtual model. The software also now takes into account the arm parameters, resulting in a more accurate model of the robot's actual performance. New advanced editing functions include the ability to view command-step hints by right-clicking a specific command.
"Customers have always told us how much time WINCAPS III saves them," said Peter Cavallo, robotics sales manager, DENSO Sales California. "The enhanced new version is even faster and easier to use."
