Hi @Sridhar B, if you have a program in robot language, the answer is by default: no, you can’t. You can try to write in source code (FexScript or C++) a post processor that will translate speed, acceleration, coordinates and continuous path envelopes into joint parameters for the movement of the robot interface in FlexSim robots’ properties. It is quite a huge task to do this. The precise outcome isn’t guaranteed, because I am not sure where you get the last fine hooks the robot manufacturer has introduced in the firmware of the robot. There are maybe better tools to achieve this than FlexSim. I know such a tool, but this simulates a robot program inside a specialized environment to insert it later just as an animation into a discrete material flow simulation. Sorry, that I am not able to give an positive answer. Maybe you get it later the day from the developers. Regards Jörg.
