DELMIA Robotics Robot Solutions

DELMIA Robotics is an advanced robot programming and simulation solution provided by Dassault Systemes, aimed at optimizing and managing robot systems in industrial manufacturing. Supported by the 3DExperience platform, DELMIA Robotics enables manufacturers to simulate, program, and virtually debug robots across various applications, from assembly and welding to material handling and surface treatment.

First class solutions

DELMIA Robotics achieved the highest ranking due to its outstanding performance in innovation and implementation, scoring high in every category.

1. Innovation (89.0): DELMIA is able to simulate the entire workflow (beyond individual robots), making it stand out. The seamless integration with Dassault Systemes' 3DExperience platform enables manufacturers to leverage a fully digital environment that connects design, simulation, and production.

2. Implementation (88.5): DELMIA Robotics supports over 2000 robot models and a large number of programmable logic controllers (PLCs), which can adapt to different manufacturing environments. Its business covers the globe, providing technical support in over 100 countries/regions to ensure that customers can continue to receive innovation and assistance, making it an ideal solution for manufacturers of all sizes

Seamless integration and digital continuity

One of the most significant advantages of DELMIA Robotics is its seamless integration with CAD software such as SOLIDWORKS and CATIA, ensuring complete digital continuity from design to production. This integration enables manufacturers to immediately reflect any product design changes made in simulations, enabling real-time adjustments and significantly reducing time to market.

For manufacturers, this means that new product designs, adjustments, or updates can be incorporated into simulations without any downtime. By connecting design and production through digital twins, DELMIA Robotics ensures that manufacturers can optimize processes, improve efficiency, and deliver results faster.

The flexibility and adaptability of multi variety and small batch manufacturing

As manufacturers increasingly require flexible solutions to adapt to multi variety, small batch production operations, DELMIA Robotics offers unparalleled customization capabilities. This platform supports over 2000 robot models and extensively supports different PLCs, which means it can easily integrate with various types of hardware and software. This adaptability is crucial for manufacturers who need to quickly adjust their processes to meet constantly changing demands.

In addition to extensive hardware support, DELMIA Robotics also offers open APIs and C++scripting capabilities, as well as Dassault Systemes' proprietary Enterprise Knowledge Language (EKL), allowing users to customize the system according to their specific needs. This makes DELMIA Robotics an important tool for manufacturers who require rapid reconfiguration and process flexibility.

The ease and usability of robot programming

One of the challenges in adopting advanced robot technology in manufacturing is the complexity of programming and managing robot systems. DELMIA Robotics addresses this challenge by providing a highly intuitive and user-friendly interface. Virtual teaching pendant, no code/low code programming options, and simplified graphical user interface (GUI) enable engineers with different levels of experience to easily program robots.

This ease of use significantly reduces the time and effort required for robot programming, enabling engineers to quickly deploy and optimize their robot systems. In addition, the platform's easy-to-use robot programming means that even novice robot technicians can take advantage of its powerful features without the need for extensive training.

Industry application scenarios

In the automotive industry, DELMIA Robotics plays a crucial role in the BIW production stage, assembling the structural framework of the car before painting. In the aerospace and defense industries where precision and safety are crucial, DELMIA Robotics is used to program and simulate robots to perform complex processes such as drilling, riveting, and milling aircraft components. For industrial equipment manufacturers, DELMIA Robotics provides significant advantages by achieving seamless integration of robots in highly customized production processes.
