Motion

Built on it

• Factory layout and simulation — Layout, line balancing, simulation, ergonomics.
• Robotics — Robot cells, reach, cycle time, URDF.
• Robotics and mechatronics — Robot sheets for PartCraft and ModelCraft: planar arm forward and inverse kinematics, static joint torque, motor and gearbox sizing and move time.

Use it in your add-on

Name it in your manifest's needs. When someone adds your add-on, their account brings this engine too, and every edition loads it the first time your add-on needs it. Version ranges arrive with AL.13.

Methods and standards

Denavit-Hartenberg models, inverse kinematics, Newton-Euler dynamics and trajectory generation, as checked in the tests.

Limits

Planned. Contact-free dynamics only, per the track plan. A calculation aid, not a safety validation of a robot cell.
