FANUC Robot Model Update​

In mid-October, Resolver switched to a new internal FANUC model that catered more to the unique velocity-based smoothing methods used by FANUC. Initially, this model generated paths that were more accurate (collision-free) than the previous radius-based model, but many users reported poor performance in smoothing generation at vias. We are happy to announce our biggest improvement to the model since initial release. Enhancements include:

• Improved Dynamics Calibration process that handles specific edge cases that were previously skewing general dynamic values.
• Bug fixes to the internal FANUC smoothing model.
• Engine enhancements to handle clearance violations better, which significantly affects FANUC robots that require large jumps in CNT values to improve cycle time.

In general, users should see significantly greater use of large CNT values at vias in this release. Internal testing showed generated paths that previously had 90% FINE term types now have 90+% of vias with CNT70 and above. Additional work and specific edge cases that users should be aware of:

• Higher CNT value does not monotonically improve cycle time on FANUC robots. We have specific cases identified where CNT0 - CNT40 produce slower cycle time than FINE. If you (the user) identify a case where Resolver is producing a FINE term type, but a significantly higher value is possible without violating clearances, please open a support ticket and provide the study.
• The Resolver engine is biased towards producing few vias with large smoothing in generated paths, which always leads to better cycle time in radius-based smoothing models (non-FANUC). There are edge cases where the engine would need to produce significantly more vias to shape the path with large smoothing. Typically, this occurs in areas where there is a “tunnel” effect of clearance limitations on both sides of the required motion. We are asking for feedback and examples for this edge case:
  • As a user, would you prefer 2 vias and lower smoothing values or 15 vias with higher smoothing values and slightly better cycle time? Please submit feedback via the support portal or directly through other support channels.
  • Please submit examples of these scenarios if you find them. The best way to improve Resolver is through real-world problems.

---

Process Simulate Connector 1.10.0​

Improved experience when using FANUC Robots and FANUC RCS

• NEW: CNT100 at Spotwelds for FANUC robots
  • When using FANUC robots, term type will be copied from the original location if not blank.
  • If the term type is blank on the original weld location, the import process will automatically set CNT100 for those locations with FANUC-Rj and FANUC-Rj-Japan controllers.
• Improved: RCS Model Alignment
  • If there is a kinematics mismatch between RCS and Process Simulate during calibration, users will now receive a warning if deviation is greater than 10 mm.
  • If users give a Move command, it will go to the same joint position as a Joint command. If users have mismatching joint values for a target, users will now get an error to check the RCS model.
• Improved: FANUC RCS dynamics calibration

Resolver Platform Enhancements​

New folder structure and log in experience

• NEW: Folder structure to organize studies.
  • Your Workspace: You will now see a “Default” Project in the left sidebar, which can only be created and renamed by RTR. This contains your allocated robots per run. The robots per run are allocated based on the robot count identified in your contract with RTR.
  • Create Folders: Users can now create sub-folders within a Project to organize and upload studies. You can upload studies directly to a specific folder using a connector. Robots per run can be used across any folder in your Project. Currently, folders can only be deleted by RTR.
  • Running Studies: There must be a number of robots per run at the Project level, defined in a sales contract, to upload a custom study to Resolver. Users without a contract can still run Resolver using the RTR Demo Cell. RTR will create a “Demo” Project for all active customers without a payment contract to be able to load the RTR Demo Cell study.
  • Important Note: You must have a Project Folder in your environment in order to upload studies and you must be a paying customer to execute runs with unique studies. If you do not have a project in your environment or would like to run your own cell through Resolver, contact your Account Representative.

• NEW: Updated log in experience with option for Single Sign On (SSO) through Google and Microsoft
  • The next time you are prompted to log into Resolver, you will see a new log in experience that includes the option to sign in using Google or Microsoft.
  • New users can now be added to Resolver using their existing Google or Microsoft accounts.
  • What does this mean? You should still be able to log in using your original email and password, but users can now log in to Resolver with SSO using their Google or Microsoft account information.

---

All Connectors​

NEW: Export a study to a specific folder in Resolver

• When users are exporting to Resolver, they can click the “Select” button and choose exactly where they would like their study to be exported using a new folder navigation window.
• Folders must be created in the Platform UI to be visible as an option for Export in a connector.

Improved: Log retrieval for error reporting

• There is now an option to “'Download Logs” when errors occur, so users can better understand what is happening during an error.
• Error logs will include a timestamp and error label.
• Note: Are you getting an error message you don’t understand? Send us a ticket! We want to continue to improve our error messaging to make it clear and actionable for users. Please include the entire text of the error message in your ticket.

    • Note: There is additional engine optimization work in progress to allow more frequent use of higher CNT values.
• NEW: Support for SetSignal, WaitSignal and Send OLP Commands
  • Paths with SetSignal, WaitSignal, and Send OLP commands are now supported during export. These signals will be interpreted as precedence constraints in the query.
    • Note: Every WaitSignal must have a matching SetSignal. You will receive an error when exporting studies that have WaitSignal commands without a SetSignal.
  • Signals are only supported at the start or end of OLP commands and only OLP-level signals are supported.
• Improved: Collision Set Alerts and Display Settings
  • Users will be alerted when collision sets only contain hidden objects.
  • Users will be alerted if objects are referenced in operations but not included in any active collision sets.

• "Direct" move types allow users to include robot motions that are simply executed, not planned by Resolver. This keeps cycle times and interlocks accurate to include the fixed parts of your robot motion while allowing Resolver to plan the rest.
• If you want to keep the default behavior of Resolver, there are no changes required. Leave all Targets as "Planned" move type to allow Resolver to plan all the motions for your operation.

Note: It is not recommended to use Direct move types if targets are being re-ordered by the engine (when "Optimize Target Order" is selected).

Improvement: Support for Complex Work Cells

• We are working on the back end of Resolver to improve the optimization of large, complex work cells. In particular, robot allocation queries will see a big enhancement in the ability to solve large problems and produce quality results, faster.
• You will also see:
  • Improvements to large numbers of targets (200+)
  • Linear rail capabilities for unallocated targets
  • Improvement to Optimize Rz reducing robot-robot conflicts

---

Process Simulate Connector 1.5.0​

Added support for Linear Moves

NEW: Calibration Data is Cached
