What is Robot Programmer?

Manufacturing and production solutions for connecting design data with machining, inspection, shop-floor programming, lean execution, factory planning, and robotics.

Robot Programmer is a SOLIDWORKS Manufacturing role that enables users to simulate, validate, and program robot tasks before implementing them on the shop floor. It helps teams automate repetitive operations, test robotic movements virtually, and reduce costly errors before production begins.Whether you are adding a collaborative robot to an existing process or building a fully automated workcell, Robot Programmer helps users reuse existing robot programs, validate robotic paths, and program robots offline without interrupting current production. It also connects with SOLIDWORKS and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform for a more integrated design-to-manufacturing workflow.

Use this solution to move from engineering data to production workflows with better accuracy and control. Khodiyar Infotech supports software selection, implementation, training, and manufacturing workflow guidance.

How Robot Programmer Helps Your Team.

/// 01
+01

End-to-End Digital Continuity

Robot Programmer supports digital continuity by connecting robot programming with product design and manufacturing data. Teams can plan, simulate, and validate robotic operations in a connected environment, helping reduce gaps between engineering, automation planning, and shop floor execution.

/// 02
+02

Improved Collaboration

Robot Programmer allows designers, engineers, programmers, and manufacturing teams to work together around the same robotic workcell data. With shared access to simulation and validation tools, teams can review robot paths, discuss changes, and make faster decisions before implementation.

/// 03
+03

Efficient Digital Manufacturing

By using robot simulation and virtual validation, teams can reduce the need for trial-and-error on the shop floor. Robot Programmer helps identify reachability issues, tooling concerns, and collision risks earlier, allowing teams to improve automation workflows before physical production begins.

// 03 — Capabilities

Robot Programmer Capabilities.

Robot Programmer provides practical capabilities for offline programming, robot simulation, workcell validation, and production-ready automation planning.

/// CAPABILITY 01

Offline Programming Keeps Production Flowing

Robot Programmer allows users to create and adjust robot programs offline, so production equipment can continue running while programming work happens virtually. Teams can build, test, and refine robotic tasks away from the shop floor, reducing downtime and helping new or updated programs move into production with fewer interruptions.

/// CAPABILITY 02

Implement Faster with Fewer Errors

Robot Programmer helps users program and validate robotic toolpaths directly from 3D CAD models. Programmers can visualize robot movements, edit paths in 3D, test multiple “what-if” scenarios, and validate automation accessories inside the workcell. This helps reduce mistakes, improve tooling confidence, and identify issues before real-world implementation.
