Path Planning路径规划
Path planning is the computational process of generating a robot’s motion trajectory between points while avoiding obstacles, respecting joint limits, and optimizing factors such as speed or energy use. In offline programming guides, simulation reports, and work-cell design documents, it is presented as the planned route a tool or arm follows, bridging part geometry, control software, and physical machine constraints.

Where this term appears
Path planning terminology appears in robot programming manuals, simulation software UI strings, and integration studies. Translators must align terminology with robotics platforms, preserve waypoint naming conventions, and decide whether “trajectory” and “path” refer to the same concept in the source text. It also appears in time-and-motion documentation that links cycle times to route choices.
Translation checks
A frequent mistake is translating path planning as “route scheduling” or “process sequencing,” which shifts the meaning from spatial robot motion to production order. This can cause support documentation and UI labels to mislead users about what the software actually controls, especially in simulation and collision-avoidance features. The error is common when the source text uses “path” for both material flow and robot trajectory.
Keep the term aligned across your files
Check equipment names, units, safety instructions and interface labels against the source and approved references. Confirm any market-specific document requirements separately.
Provide approved terms and previous translations with the source files. Agree how variants, ambiguous wording and revisions will be reviewed. Terminology maintenance and any termbase handback are confirmed in the project scope. See the 8-step AI + expert workflow.
