Time difference between cnc machine and robot

#1
Why is it that a program run on a CNC would take 2 minutes to complete but on the robot it takes 40 minutes. Is there a specific post processor needed in my cam software from RoboDK program?
#2
There are many possible factors involved.
Is your robot speed the same as the CNC one? Is the CNC speed even possible to reach on the robot?
What about your acceleration?
And the rounding/blending?

I am not sure as to check the robot speed as to the cnc. The CNC is at a feed rate of 2400 mm/min. This is a straight boring of holes job. When RoboDK generated the robot job it assigned as speed of V=40 to all the cutting moves. Not sure how to change the speed .

Speed in robot controllers are in mm/s, so 40mm/s = 2400 mm/min.

I don't know how you got 40 mins, RDK's cycle time tool, tells me about 4mins.

Double click the program, let it move past the app section, double-click it again and look at the bottom right-section of your screen.
