Robotics

AgX Multiphysics brings fast high fidelity simulations to robotics. The entire robot and its environment can be simulated, or AgX simulations can be kinematically constrained to an existing simulation for co-simulating specific components.

The above video shows a simulation of an industry robot with a cable dress pack, a grasping tool and a conveyor belt.

Essential functionality include:

• Full coordinate method which gives high precision modeling of forces, dissipation and material properties in contacts and joints.
• Accurate modeling of joint compliance ("weakness") using real material parameters.
• Modeling of actuators and motors.
• High precision solver that delivers solutions to machine precision.
• Consistent integration with multiphysics simulation of e.g. cables and wires, fluids, elastic and viscoplastic materials.
• Import of mesh and CAD models.
• Models of conveyor belts and other surrounding equipment.
