The Robot setup button opens RoboDK and opens a default robot machining project you can use to start your robot simulation and robot machining project.

You can easily change the robot, modify the tool and/or the reference frame. As an example, follow these steps to change the robot:

1.Right click the robot

2.Select Replace robot (as shown in the image)

3.Select the new robot

The RoboDK installer only provides a few robots by default, however, it is possible to download more robots from the online library.

More information about adding a robot tool is available in the Getting Started Section.

Tip: Hold the Alt key to move a reference frame or a robot. This is useful to move the robot within the station or to position/orient the part in front of the robot.

Hold Alt+Shift to move a robot tool (TCP). This is useful to set the pose of the robot before teaching a target.

Save the project to keep the changes by selecting File➔Save Station (Ctrl+S).
