Abstract

Nowadays, an industrial robot is not only a mechanical arm, but it is a combination of controller and software. Milling is one of the popular applications for robot. Milling robot is stepping into the milling industry to replace the CNC machines. Robot has high level of flexibility to use different tools, Robot have abilities to produce high quality, complex geometry paths, different size or shape of object by choosing the suitable end of arm tools and programming. Every robot manufacturer has its own languages, there is no robot language standard as G-Code for robot. The preceding of industrial robot has a lot of problem such as load complex milling programs that are thousand lines of code. As the solution every major robot manufacturer offers special application to convert robot language to G-Code. But normally this special application is add-on application with additional paid. Besides, most of the industry or institute are don’t have the knowledge of operating and programming a milling robot. But they might have the knowledge in G-code which is typically used in CNC Machines. Therefore, the G-Code to Rapid Code free conversion application is needs to make use of G-Code and simplify robot milling operation and programming.
