DESCRIPTION
In this module, you will explore Virtual commissioning with DELMIA and ControlBuild. Discover how to improve the virtual workcell in DELMIA Robotics to make it ready for co-simulation with CATIA ControlBuild, using sensors, IO and others, through the example of a Body-in-White (BIW) station. You will learn about ControlBuild, with a basic example of model in standalone mode, then with a more complex logic to control the BIW station. Further, you will understand how to connect the two softwares through shared memory and FMI to perform a “model in the loop” virtual commissioning.
OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this learning module, you will be able to:
- Prepare a Robot Workcell for Virtual Commissioning
- Create the required dataset in ControlBuild (virtual control software and real-time functional plant behavior) in SFC or Ladder
- Create an FMU connector for the real-time communication with DELMIA
- Connect the two modules to perform a co-simulation (“model in the loop”) through an FMU Connector
- In the provided example, the control (logics) of the DELMIA workcell is done in CB
Beside the logics, we also provide an example of a functional model (clamp) in CB, where we compute the joint values used in DELMIA to animate this clamp in 3D in real-time.
