Introduction

This section will help you create a basic project in RoboDK for robot simulation and offline programming. In this example a Kawasaki RS007N robot is simulated and programmed for a robot liquid dispensing application using SolidWorks and RoboDK. You will learn how to transform a 2D sketch from SolidWorks into a real robot program in less than 15 minutes.

With the RoboDK plug-in for SolidWorks you can easily load 3D models created in SolidWorks to RoboDK. This plug-in allows you to program more than 50 different robot manufacturers and 500 robots directly from SolidWorks.

The RoboDK plug-in for SolidWorks works for SolidWorks 2016 and later and is free. However, certain options in RoboDK require purchasing a license.
