4 Use FASTSUITE Edition 2 to create, program, simulate and optimize your production environment! Resource definition Users can build, categorize and organize simulation resources and process components by combining 3D CAD data with pre-defined or user-defined resource types, such as conveyors, robots, machines, fixtures, tools and other equipment. With no specific programming skills, the kinematic chain and the logical behavior of a resource can be defined easily. Layout creation and validation FASTSUITE Edition 2 provides advanced, efficient and intuitive tools for the layout definition. No matter if it is a single robot cell or a complete automation line. Innovative 3D manipulators make it very easy to move, snap, align and logically connect all necessary resources into a virtual layout. Immediate validation options help to detect and solve layout collisions, accessibility problems and reach ability issues in a very early project stage. Process planning and preparation The new CENIT application offers essential process planning capabilities, allowing process planners to efficiently create and validate the manufacturing process. The software can be connected with process planning tools to re-use pre-existing planning data. If no process plan is available as an input, it is very easy to map and assign manufacturing features with tools and process templates, and to link products with resources. Planners can also predict cycle times on devices, cell and line level to optimize the balancing. Offline programming and simulation FASTSUITE Edition 2 provides advanced offline programming for virtually any production technology. For the highest degree of accuracy, the trajectories are computed on the mathematical CAD data. For a quick and easy program creation, the virtual

5 teach-in panel can be used. Process templates are available to automatically optimize the trajectories with regards to technology requirements. Thanks to an immediate process simulation, the software allows users to deliver validated programs to the shop floor. Customers can create production programs offline, while keeping their online system in production and generating revenue without halting production. Human interactions and material handling Material handling is a key part of most of the manufacturing processes. It includes loading, unloading, and transporting of parts to the cells. Whether it is mechanical or human interaction, the virtual environment of FASTSUITE Edition 2 helps to identify and eliminate potential risks and bottlenecks. Virtual commissioning Virtual simulation is only valuable if it truly reflects the true shop floor system behavior. This does not only apply to exact robot or machine motions, but it also includes the signal mapping and controller logic of complete automation cells. Due to the seamless integration of RobSim, the leading virtual commissioning software of EKS InTec GmbH, FASTSUITE Edition 2 is closing the gap between the virtual and the real world. Customized solutions for best-in-class digital manufacturing We offer you the best alternative solution for the digital factory, for every level of complexity. From the offline programming of entire factory layouts down to single robot cells. From engineering down to virtual commissioning, our goal is to support manufacturing processes with best-in-class software technology. Our stand-alone solutions run independently from CAD or PLM systems and yet integrate through standard CAD translators and direct CAD integrations. In addition to the off-the-shelf FASTSUITE Edition 2 product line, CENIT also offers a software development kit (SDK), which enables companies to use the entire architecture and API set to build and integrate proprietary applications and software solutions. CENIT not only offers cutting edge software technology but also provides expert level consulting and support services, presales and most importantly post-sales. CENIT accomplishes expert level support through numerous long-term service and support engagements at manufacturing facilities world-wide and has been doing so for more than two decades.
