Annotation In the study course industrial robot (IR) virtual prototyping, modelling and simulations are reviewed. Prototyping is divided into steps and includes IR work station development, work environment, instrument and work object definition and configuration. Advanced prototyping includes manipulator work in many components environments, where work synchronization tasks are described and overlooked. Robot modelling includes the development of robot control principle and work execution programme. .
The study course is mainly based on practical lectures, where industrial robot irb1600 and RobotStudio modelling software are considered..
