RobotWare DieCast is a software product for easy programming and operation of ABB robots for machine tending and post processing. It provides an easy-to-use user interface for programming and production, including safe home run, user authorization, production statistics, event log, and a standardized and structured way of programming a machine tending operation. The operator starts customized production cycles by one button tap in the production window. Robot movements are displayed in real time on the IRC5 flex pendant, and color icons on the screen indicate station statuses. Production stats, signal status, and error logs are presented in a pedagogic fashion.
