Simulation Service System with Cloud Manufacturing for Industrial Robot

Abstract

As digital information technology is continuously developing and the application of Internet is much wider, the function of simulation system for industrial robot is no longer limited to single simulation. With the introduction of emerging technologies, especially Cloud Manufacturing, the integration service requirement for industrial robot simulation system is put up. Based on Virtual Reality and Cloud Manufacturing, a simulation service system prototype is designed with cloud manufacturing for industrial robot. The system is deployed on a cloud server with B/S architecture and can be accessed by a browser. And the system includes robot information service module and robot simulation service module. Robot information service module provides robot information retrieving, robot welding process recommendation and other services. And robot simulation service module can provide a variety of processing simulation, like robot welding, robot grinding, robot cutting and so on. The system developed in this paper has a certain practicality, and can be effectively used in production, teaching and other occasions.
