To enable easier robot programming, igus has developed control software for its low-cost automation solutions. igus robot control is available online and offers the user an easy introduction to automation. Different robot kinematics can be programmed and controlled, and a digital twin simulates the movements. In this way, the user can program a suitable solution before purchase.

With igus robot control, the user can freely move all axes of the digital twin via a 3D interface. By means of a teach-in function the robot can be programmed easily, even without a robot connection. To do this, the user must manually move the robot to the desired position and define how it is to be moved. The process is repeated until the desired motion profile is created. Matching end effectors, such as grippers, are easy to add and the tool centre point adjusts automatically. Virtual boxes can also be installed, for example, to prevent the robot from colliding with a machine. The igus robot control can also be connected to a higher-level control system, either via interface communication with digital I/O or via Ethernet communication using IP address.
