Inbolt Robot Programming is the CAD-based programming capability inside Inbolt Studio. Engineers build the program directly on the CAD model, in the part’s own reference frame. At runtime, the Inbolt Vision Model locates the real part and adjusts the robot’s motion to execute the planned path exactly. No teach pendant. No iterative tuning. No separate workflow for moving lines. Drop in CAD, set the operation in a digital twin, and you have executable robot motion in under five minutes. What used to take weeks of commissioning now works in one shot, on the robots you already own.

Upload the CAD model of the part into Inbolt Studio. Define the operation directly on the digital twin: pick the surfaces, set the trajectory, configure tool orientation. The program lives in the part’s reference frame, not the robot’s controller. Inbolt generates the executable motion, and the Inbolt Vision Model handles part localization at runtime, adjusting the path to match the real position on the line. No brand-specific code. No re-teaching when SKUs change. Most programs are ready for the floor in under five minutes, including for moving-line applications.

No. Inbolt Robot Programming replaces brand-specific code and pendant teaching with a CAD-first workflow. Engineers work in the part’s reference frame using a digital twin, not in robot-specific motion code. The Vision Model handles part localization automatically — no dataset preparation, no manual tuning. That removes the two biggest specialist bottlenecks in commissioning: teach-pendant programming and machine vision setup. Anyone fluent in CAD and process logic can build, test, and deploy a program, while specialist robot engineers stay focused on the harder problems.

Inbolt Robot Programming runs on all six supported brands: FANUC, ABB, KUKA, Yaskawa, Comau, and Universal Robots. The new CAD-based workflow — where engineers prepare waypoints directly on the CAD model in Inbolt Studio, with no robot connected to the system — is available today for FANUC and Yaskawa on dynamic, moving-line applications, with broader brand coverage on the roadmap. Programs stay portable across supported brands. If your robot brand isn’t yet covered, Inbolt’s engineering team can scope timing and compatibility directly.

Inbolt Robot Programming runs fully on-premise inside Inbolt Studio. CAD files, programs, and runtime data stay on the local network. There is no cloud dependency for programming, execution, or vision processing. Manufacturers keep full control of their IP, process information, and robot fleet. Updates are delivered periodically, but daily operations remain offline, minimizing cybersecurity exposure.

Programming time drops from weeks of pendant teaching to minutes of CAD work. Engineers stop rebuilding paths for every new SKU and stop maintaining separate workflows for stationary versus moving-line applications. Commissioning compresses, line changeovers compress, and the same engineering effort covers more cells. Customers report up to 97% less downtime and 90% fewer rejects on production lines running the Inbolt platform. Most see payback inside 6-12 months, whether retrofitting existing robots or launching new stations.
