Design of Joint Simulation System of Industrial Robot Training Equipment Based on RobotStudio and TIA Portal

To address the shortage of industrial robotics training equipment in vocational colleges, a collaborative simulation system has been developed to emulate the integrated operations of industrial robots, PLCs, and HMI touchscreens. Centered around the RobotStudio 6.08 and TIA Portal V18 software platforms, this system achieves seamless communication between the platforms by establishing simulation models and configuring the S7-PLCSIM Advanced V5.0 software along with the RSConnectDIOToSnap7 Smart communication component. Through meticulous design of control programs and HMI interfaces, the system has been successfully established as a comprehensive simulation platform for industrial robotics training. Extensive simulation testing and validation have confirmed that this system effectively replicates the dynamic interactions of industrial robots, PLCs, and HMI touchscreens, providing a training experience that closely mirrors that of actual industrial robotics equipment.
