Hello!
I want to simulate a laser/plasma cut with a Fanuc robot, but I don’t know if and how to it.
I want to let the robot cut some hole or some other geometry in a metal sheet, and I want to make the part cutted falling off or disappear.
The thing I want to simulate is something like that, or even that. Can some of you please tell me how this is made?
I’m currently using Visual Components professional OLP 4.10.
Thanks to everybody!
Like this？
Can I upload VC files for learning? Thank you.
May I know how to implement the video?
That would be a lot of help!
Use boolean features
Yes! Something like this
Hello.
In the past I’ve discussed this issue in the forums, and in order to achieve real-time resection effects, most of the current practice is to constantly perform boolean reduction behavior on a large component, which can be somewhat effective, but one problem that has to be faced is that he can lead to triangulated surfaces becoming messy and some irrecoverable holes appearing (as can be seen in the ease video where the model features become no longer stable). If you don’t care about that, you can make a demo with this method, and actually, we were discussing that it might be better to pixelate the model with an algorithm that removes small models in the same way as it removes small models, rather than doing direct operations on large models, but that’s another challenge for the whole simulation environment.
So, if it’s just for schematic purposes, my advice would be to use the replacement component method.
Does laser cutting become sluggish when cutting more complex shapes?Could you elaborate on your method? Thanks a lot!
