Smart simulation software for efficient offline programming: with KUKA.Sim, you can easily and quickly optimize the production operations of your systems and robots – for increased flexibility, productivity and competitiveness.

Fast, simple, efficient: decisive advantages in planning robot applications thanks to KUKA.Sim

Thanks to intuitive operation as well as a multitude of different functions and modules, KUKA.Sim is the optimal solution for maximum efficiency in offline programming.

  • Time savings

    KUKA.Sim enables you to plan your system and robot concepts quickly, easily and individually in line with your customers’ needs – without anything actually having to be built in the real world.

  • Increased sales

    KUKA.Sim helps your sales team to professionally present your solutions to end customers and to increase your sales success.

  • Planning reliability

    Design system concepts in advance with very accurate cycle times for increased planning reliability and competitiveness.

  • Verifiability

    The reachability check and collision detection features allow you to test the viability of your robot programs and cell layouts.

Pick and place with robots: simulation using KUKA.Sim software 

KUKA.Sim ensures efficient production processes and is perfectly suited to pick and place.

Simulation software for offline programming: more flexibility, productivity and efficiency

You can create optimum layouts for your production systems at an early stage of the project. Simply drag the smart components from the library and drop them in the required position. Investigate alternatives and verify concepts with a minimum of effort.
