Abstract
Flexible manufacturing systems based on robotic arms are becoming more used in machining due to the increase of system performance and the low cost of equipments compared with conventional CNCs. Normally, CAM software is developed focusing only in standard machines. This paper presents the customization and programming into an standard CAD CAM software to manage flexible manufacturing cells containing robotic systems, CNC machines and any other accessories. The paper shows a solution to manage all the process from CAD modelling to native machine code generation considering an integrated environment for simulating all the process.
