Thank you for your patience here! We have been able to add the Sysmac Simulator Example to the video description. You can go ahead and find it there. Happy learning!
Hi @nnnnn About Testing - It is possible as the testing of control logic by PLC. This is because the 3D simulation is executed with PLC emulator and the actual Ladder program. A PLC engineer can use this 3D simulation for their program debugs. Checking physical properties - There is not the functionality for physical simulation.(ex. friction, stiffness etc.), However, there is the function for collision check. This simulation is executed by actual Ladder program, therefore the PLC programmer can check their own program.(inc. error case) We think it is useful for beginners of Omron PLC programming.
Basically, NJ/NX series PLC supports language specifications that are based on IEC 61131-3. The Ladder is one of them. The 3D simulation uses the actual PLC’s program regardless of the IEC 61131-3 language chosen.
Hello @abd morioglu. Thanks for the question. At this point in time, it is not possible to display the 3D simulation on your HMI. However, the 3D simulation can create a video file that you can view whenever you want.
Hi Amashisha, Thanks for your comment! The 3D Simulation function is easily installed on Sysmac Studio once a license has been purchased. There’s also an option to purchase more licenses and/or a site license. For purchasing the Sysmac Studio 3D Simulation license go to the Omron website: bit.ly/3NCiS5J A 30-day Trial version of Sysmac Studio 3D is available from Omron: bit.ly/3Tc1y8J But before the 3D Simulation trial version is installed, a trial version of Sysmac Studio must be installed. Here's the link : automation.omron.com/en/mx/forms/download-sysmac-studio-trial Hope this helps! Happy learning
dude it have other languages for you to control PLC. but the popular is Ladder diagram. the resion why no python or other programing languages is: the PLC DNA.

Sysmac Simulator Example - XYZ Machine project is not available. Can I ask for access to this example?

is 3D used for testing? ie, checking physical properties, faults, maximum speed, etc.? it seems 3D should be first step in industrial automation!

De nada!
Ladder is terrible for motion. Text based script is preferred for development and readability.

thanks for showing this. was wondering myself how to do 3D! more videos on this is nice! or how big factories are operated!
Thanks for your support! Glad to hear that, and we will happily pass your feedback on to our team.
Merci!
You're very welcome!
Can I show 3d Simulation on My Hmi?
Hello @abd morioglu. Thanks for the question. At this point in time, it is not possible to display the 3D simulation on your HMI. However, the 3D simulation can create a video file that you can view whenever you want.
Is this software free? How do I acquire it?

where i can find the stp files of the robot
Hello @taylan semizler. I'm sorry, but we're not at liberty to release the stp files.
nice!
Thank you!
Nice 👍
You're very welcome!
still boggles my mind that it is in ladder logic and not Python, Java, or something more programmable.. it is 21 century cmon!
