ABB RobotStudio RAPID Extensions enhance RAPID programming with advanced functions for motion, I/O, and data handling.

They simplify complex tasks, enable multi-robot coordination, and integrate seamlessly with industrial systems.

Extensions reduce development time while ensuring deterministic, safe, and maintainable robot programs.

Ideal for manufacturing, automotive, packaging, and advanced robotic automation.

Fully compatible with RobotStudio simulation and ABB RobotWare runtime.

Can RAPID Extensions run on all ABB robots? -> Mostly on robots with compatible RobotWare versions.

Do I need RobotStudio for extensions? -> Yes, for offline programming and simulation.

Are RAPID Extensions open-source? -> Some libraries are; others are ABB proprietary.

Can I integrate with PLCs? -> Yes, via I/O and communication modules.

Is simulation required before deployment? -> Highly recommended to avoid collisions or errors.
