In a continuing series, OCTOPUZ will be examined to determine their expertise in the field of offline programming software for robotics. In this post, we will be looking at edge following applications in OCTOPUZ.
Edge Following with OCTOPUZ is easy, reliable, efficient, intuitive and economical. There are many types offered, such as Waterjet Cutting, Spindle Trimming, Deburring, Laser Cutting, Plasma Cutting, Knife Cutting, Dispensing, and more. With OCTOPUZ, you are able to quickly modify tool orientation for entire path to avoid errors, tilt all positions forward, backward or sideways, increase or decrease the number of path positions or spacing points, and control cutting depths.
