Multi-Robot and Multi-Station Programming
User Frames
The workspace widget now groups parts, welds and other items together according to user-frames.
User-frames are coordinate frames created and attached to the different positioners available to use in the current work cell. The origin and rotation of these user-frames will depend on the station their attached to.
To create a new user-frame, use the button found in the bottom left of the workspace widget. Once created, a user-frame can be named and attached to a station using the details widget.
Tasks
Tasks define which robots are enabled in the current project, and which of the enabled robots will control the joints of a given workpiece positioner.
A task can consist of either a single robot, or a robot and a workpiece positioner pair.

Task Selection
Tasks can be enabled and disabled for the current project within the general tab of the Project Settings menu. Enabling a task in this menu will allow the task’s robot to be selectable when assigning robots to welds.
Note
A workpiece positioner can only be assigned to one robot at a time in a given project. If 2 tasks with the same workpiece positioner are enabled, Verbotics Weld will flag the incompatible tasks and require you to deselect one of the tasks to proceed:
Assigning Welds to Robots
Identified welds can be assigned to different robots, given there is more than one task enabled for the current project. The assigned robot can be changed via a drop-down box found in the details widget when one or more welds are selected.

Assign robot to weld
Simultaneous Robot Programs
A project with 2 or more enabled robots can be prepared such that both robots can weld the same assembly simultaneously. However, for welds to be planned simultaneously, there are 2 requirements:
The robots must not be at risk of colliding while completing their given weld.
The workpiece positioner value must be the same for each of the welds.

Example of simultaneous welding
Robots with planned welds are assigned working zones to determine if they are at risk of colliding with other robots while completing their weld.
Visibility of these zones can be enabled in View > Show/Hide in Viewer > Show Robot Working Zones
.
Customised working zones can also be created by right-clicking on an assembly or part, and selecting Create Working Zone
.
A custom working zone will be shown in the workspace. A custom working zone can have its area and position changed, and can also be set to be explored or avoided.
Robot Settings and Configuration
A project with two or more enabled robots will replace the Program tab in the project settings menu with a tab for each enabled robot.
The first robot in this list will be given the (default) tag. To apply custom settings to robots without the (default) label, the Use custom options for this robot?
option will need to be enabled at the top of the selected robot’s options. Once enabled, the settings for the current robot will be unlocked.
