rhino2krl is a cad to robot interface for offline programming robot movements. It generates a highly adaptable robot control code (KRL). The interface is fully integrated into the Cad-Software Rhino3d. Just pick any Curves from the document, decide on a strategy how to orient the robot’s tool and get the KRL-Code. This approach is 100% compatible with rhinonest, rhinocam, grasshopper, rhinoscript, phytonscript and many more.

The generated code can be read very easily on the robot’s control panel, allowing to move the workpiece, adapt the security-position / height, the global speed parameters and many more. Each rhino-curve becomes a toolpath that is called with one line of code. Therefore it is easy to manage complex jobs and recognise the former Cad-elements. The example shows 12 curves that represent a “HELLO WORLD” writing.

rhino2krl was first presented on the rob|arch2012 – conference.

All robotic projects on this page use this interface:

star puzzle, Robotic Micro Capentry and many more.
