Spatial Corp. and Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd Collaborate to Leverage Spatial Software Components to Power neoROSET Robot Programming

Spatial Corp., the leading 3D software development toolkit provider for design, manufacturing and engineering solutions and a subsidiary of Dassault Systèmes, and Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd today announced their collaboration to leverage Spatial Software Development Kits (SDKs) in the development of neoROSET, Kawasaki next-generation offline robot programming tool.

With Spatial, Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd. benefited from SDK technological excellence as well as expertise to develop neoROSET, its advanced industrial robot programming software designed to simplify and optimize robotic systems assessment and construction.

Key Spatial SDKs used in neoROSET include:

  • CGM Modeler, a state-of-the-art 3D modeling kernel
  • 3D InterOp, a robust data translation library enabling seamless data import and export in major formats
  • HOOPS Visualize, a high-performance graphics library offering state-of-the-art visualization capabilities for engineering applications
  • AGM, a comprehensive 3D application development framework starter integrating these applications into a unified workflow

“By collaborating with Spatial to leverage cutting-edge component technology into neoROSET, Kawasaki Heavy Industries delivers transformative capabilities, helping manufacturers achieve efficiency and precision in their robotic system operations,” said Masayuki Watanabe, Senior Staff Officer, Technical Planning Department Technology Group, Robot Business Division Precision Machinery & Robot Company, Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd.

Building on decades of expertise in offline robot programming, Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd. has enhanced operability and performance with neoROSET, enabling faster verification of robot implementation without disrupting on-site operations. This innovative software optimizes workflows, reduces labor hours, and enhances quality throughout the entire lifecycle of industrial robot deployment—from the design and evaluation of production facilities and lines to ongoing operation and maintenance.

“Through our collaboration with Kawasaki Heavy Industries, we provided not only our robust and integrated SDK component technology but also our expertise and operational support. Spatial's unique combination of advanced technologies and deep expertise sets us apart," said Frederic Jacqmin, Vice President, Worldwide Sales & Business Development, Spatial.
