Abstract

Production requirements are growing and companies needs to adapt to the latest trends with state-of-art technologies. Virtual reality (VR) technology promises big changes in Industry sector, even this technology is still evolving. This immersive technology allows to visualization and interaction of complex engineering data in virtual environment, provide various inspection of 3D objects and allows to communicate changes on objects or process between production teams and customers. This paper discus about potential of VR systems in Industry and purpose of usage to improve development process and the use of this technology in the design of future robotic systems. The goal is to compare causal designing methods of robotic work station and method with using VR environment and their possibilities. Development supported by VR systems shortens preproduction phase and brings to user immersive experience with designing product or process without creating physical prototype or real production systems.

Highlights

  • Simulation tools for production optimalization becomes more important in time of Industry 4.0

  • This procedure consists of creating robotic work station for welding and placement operations with support of Virtual reality (VR) device, to speed up and simplify designing process compared to causal method

  • Expected contribution of this paper is to show possibilities of designing work station for simulations in different way than is causal via CAD software

Summary

Introduction

Simulation tools for production optimalization becomes more important in time of Industry 4.0. Computer aided simulations are used to make whole production system more efficient and competitive in global market. It provide faster development of new products or methods and save money [1]. Even though VR is in early stages, it is more and more used in industrial sectors and companies are finding way to usage [2]. This technology promises benefits for industrial applications such as model prototyping, simulations of processes, maintenance tasks and design review. Comparison contains possibilities of both methods and their advantages and disadvantages
