Industrial robots are used for many tasks, mainly for material handling and welding. Robots can be also equipped with other tools and used for machining. Nowadays small numbers of robots are used mainly for machining of soft materials, such as plastic, wood, foam and aluminium. This technique is used mainly for rapid prototyping. In this article an example of computer modelling of robotic cell for machining is shown. Some problems related with robot programming, accuracy, repeatability and calibration are discussed. An example of machining in polystyrene is presented.
