The IGUS control software for manufacturer -independent robotics is growing – Lebai, Hitbot and Lynx Motion now available

Cologne, June 3, 2025 – Automation does not have to be complicated – with RobotcTRL it becomes even more accessible to companies of all size. The intuitive control software from IGUS can be operated uniformly on the online robotic marketplace RBTX regardless of the manufacturer and integrates accessories such as cameras, gripes or robot cells. RobotcTRL significantly reduces the operating complexity and integration effort for beginners and professionals. The support of the robotics manufacturers Lebai, Hitbot and Lynx Motion has been added.

As a leading marketplace for robotics and automation, RBTX combines over 175 providers and more than 850 robots and components in one place. Whether gripper, sensors or complete robot systems – interested parties will find everything you need for your automation. With the one developed by Igus RobotCtrl The integration and control of low-cost automation becomes even more flexible and easier than ever. Robots available on RBTX can be programmed and controlled uniformly with the software. Users benefit from a reduced training period because they only have to master one software. However, the possibility of programming robots of various manufacturers with just one control not only saves time and training costs, but also opens up new opportunities for a manufacturer -independent automation strategy. Thanks to the modular structure, RobotcTRL supports various robot kinematics from different manufacturers, including Igus, Fanuc, Kuka and many more. This enables seamless integration of different robotics systems into existing production and automation solutions. The movements of the robots can be simulated on a 3D surface-without the robot having to be physically connected. “This facilitates the planning and development of new processes and enables automation strategies to be tested efficiently before they are put into practice,” says Alexander Mühlens, Head of Low-Cost automation at IGUS. “Companies can therefore react faster to market requirements, make production processes more efficient and save costs.”

Robot programming made easy
RobotcTRL has already been successfully tested with leading manufacturers. Users can therefore be sure that they work with proven and reliable software. Another advantage of RobotcTRL is the user -friendly graphic interface that allows intuitive programming. Thanks to a drag-and-drop function, movements can be easily created and adjusted. This reduces the programming effort and makes the software easy to understand for users without deep programming knowledge. RobotcTRL offers a practical and cost -effective solution, especially for small and medium -sized companies that have so far been frightened before the complexity of robotics. “Our goal is to make automation as simple and accessible as possible,” emphasizes Alexander Mühlens. “With RobotcTRL, we enable companies of all size, inexpensive and flexible introduction to automation.”
