OCTOPUZ Inc. introduces PathPlanner suite of tools in new OCTOPUZ 3.0 release
OCTOPUZ Inc. has just released OCTOPUZ 3.0, a major software upgrade to its OCTOPUZ Offline Robot Programming software solution.
PathPlanner Create introduces new, intuitive tools for creating path and search statements in OCTOPUZ. With multiple path and search selection methods, along with real-time path previews, integrated automatic collision avoidance, and simple configuration options, creating statements in OCTOPUZ is better than ever.
Create path statements of any type by selecting a path in the OCTOPUZ 3D environment. Integrated creation of welding paths includes support for many welding operations, such as stitching, weaving, seam tracking, and multipasses.
Two new unique ways to create search statements are introduced to OCTOPUZ. Create a 1 point, 2 point, and 3 point search by manually selecting exact tool touch locations in the 3D environment; or, automatically create a search statement based on a previously-created path statement with automatic calculations of optimal touch locations.
PathPlanner Modify tools are built for when modifications to previously created path and search statements are needed. Easily make modifications without the need to recreate statements from scratch.
PathPlanner Transform is perfect for when there is similar geometry along the physical programmed part.
The Move transform tool moves entire path and search statements from their current location in the 3D environment to an alternate location. The Copy transform tool will copy statements to as many new locations as needed. The Mirror transform tool mirrors, or flips, statements to one or more new locations.
OCTOPUZ 3.0 is now available to download for all OCTOPUZ customers with an active OCTOPUZ subscription. Or, book a demo now to receive a free preview of how OCTOPUZ 3.0 is keeping industrial robots online and in production.

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
