KUKA Sim AddOn Part 3 Programming with a KUKA linear unit and external axes

In this video you will learn how to set up a layout with a KUKA robot and a KUKA linear track unit KL4000. Understand the settings that impact the creation of the machine data and learn how to program points with the linear unit.

You will also Learn how to add external workpiece positioners to the layout and how both can work together. In the end you will learn how to export your project to KUKA.WorkVisual to continue the commissioning process.

This lesson unlocks KUKA’s potential with KUKA external axes in VC.
