Off-lineprogramming and remote control for a palletizing robot

Robot is a programmable mechanical device. Its flexibility and intelligence largely depends on programming ability. Since the expansion of applications and the increasing complexity of tasks, robotic off-line programming has aroused wide attention and has become a very active robotics research direction. In this paper, MOTOMAN-HP20 robot is the experimental platform. The off-line programming method is discussed in detail based on MotoSim EG software. With the remote control process supported by MOTOCOM software, simulations and experiment of palletizing operation verify the efficiency and security of off-line programming technology.
