<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a simulation apparatus capable of displaying simulation results of a robot and a machine tool which operate on the basis of different command programs on a display unit. <P>SOLUTION: The simulation apparatus 10 includes a simulation management unit 24 for designating an elapsed time point, a robot operation calculation unit 12 for causing an operation program to be executed to a designated elapsed time point to determine the operating position of the robot at the designated elapsed time point, a machine tool operation calculation unit 14 for sequentially determining the operating position of the machine tool while at the same time executing the machining program continuously, and a machine tool operation storage unit 18 for storing the determined operating position of the machine tool in correspondence with the elapsed time point each time a unit time elapses. The simulation management unit displays three-dimensional models of the robot and the machine tool on a display unit 26 based on the operating positions of the robot and the machine tool at the designated elapsed time point acquired from the robot operation calculation unit and the machine tool operation calculation unit. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
