Abstract
A system for calibrating a multi-robot system includes a robot simulation device having a processor disposed therein for creating a simulation work cell of an operation of a real robot work cell, the robot simulation device configured to communicate with a robot control system controlling the robots of the real robot work cell. The simulation work cell is created based upon a predetermined layout of the real robot work cell. The system further includes a software program executed by at least one of the robot simulation device and the robot control system for calculating a part tracking offset between the simulation work cell and the real robot work cell for controlling the robots.
