Abstract: This article explores the application advantages by introducing the offline programming, linkage simulation, and virtual commissioning technology of robots in the body in white production line of the automotive manufacturing industry. Taking the high density robot repair welding station as an example, the off-line debugging time and labor cost of four technical solutions, including manual teaching, off-line programming, linkage simulation and virtual debugging are compared. It is found that using linkage simulation or virtual commissioning technology not only saves labor costs, but also reduces on-site debugging time by about 60%. The article also proposes the idea of further developing virtual debugging technology, believing that automatic path planning, agile modeling, and enhanced virtual reality fusion are the development trends.
