Flexibility. Functionality. Fluidity. What is OCTOPUZ?

Flexibility.
Functionality.
Fluidity.
Like its namesake, OCTOPUZ®
has the reach and versatility
to take interface simplicity
and core power to a new level
for optimal efficiency.
An intelligent CAD-to-Path and offline
robot programming solution capable of:
What is OCTOPUZ?
• Easily programming, synchronizing
and simulating multiple robots with
their accessories.
• Offline robotic cell development
and machine tending such as the
loading and unloading parts.
• Directly supporting paths from
Mastercam.
• Programming and simulating the
complete process including machinery.
Why Mastercam for OCTOPUZ?
When you add Mastercam to
OCTOPUZ, you will be able to take full
advantage of its pathing strategies
and apply them to your robotic
programming.
The interaction between OCTOPUZ
and Mastercam is seamless, a single
click ports all, or selected paths,
from Mastercam to OCTOPUZ. This
allows you to simulate, further
optimize if necessary, and create
robot-ready code for many brands
and configurations of single or
multiple robot cells. It will also allow
you to perform minor tweaks and
accommodate for things such as joint
limits, interference issues, additional
input/output support, and more.
Mastercam is the World leading offline programming package
for CNC applications. With over 187,000 industrial seats
worldwide, you can trust the proven track record for even the
most challenging applications.
Mastercam’s offerings are scalable in order to suit any
application with a unique bundle for your specific needs.
With offices worldwide the Mastercam dealer network is there
to support you with professionals who understand your needs,
no matter what the project scope. With more than 30 years of
history leading the CNC programming market, you can trust
Mastercam as a stable partner always there to help you succeed.

OCTOPUZ Applications
Edge Following
waterjet
trimming
deburring
laser cutting
• Tilt all positions forward, backward or sideways.
• Increase or decrease the number of path positions
or spacing points.
• Compensate for tool width.
• Control cutting depths or stand offs for end
of arm tooling.
Material Removal
• Configure multiple angle settings.
2D machining
3D multi-surface machining
remote tool center point
simulated tool/head changes
• Create remote tool center points for carrying
parts to stationary tooling.
• Set constant steps across a surface.
• Utilize high-speed toolpaths to increase accuracy and speed.
• Integrate roughing and finishing operations.
• Simulate the full process including changing tooling
or entire heads.
• Easily generate complex drilling paths.
Fabrication
welding
plasma cutting
laser cladding
• Program welding parameters, including external axes,
tool angles and many welding commands.
• Program and simulate multiple passes and/or
stitch welding.
• Generate complete welding paths in as little
as two clicks.
• Tilt all or part of the path to avoid collisions,
add a bevel or compensate for kerf angle.
Simulation
pick and place
machine tending
PLC
shop floor layout
multiple robots
component communication
• Replicate and test complex mechanical systems.
• Control the simulation using an actual PLC or OPC logic
simulation.
• Optimize part-handling operations.
• Analyze component usage to easily find bottlenecks
before the cell is ever built.
• Visualize the shop floor process from start to finish.
• Setup I/O communication between components.
Additive
dispensing
composite lay-up
spraying
welding
painting
• Refine spray pattern to maintain nozzle distance
from part.
• Control positions outside the process (during
transitions between faces).
• Simulate and analyze material thickness and quality
during simulation.
Extend your reach
Ideal for any path-sensitive
application. OCTOPUZ gives
you all the tools you need;
avoiding singularity, reach
limitations and optimized
external axis management.
