This article presents the development of FP Robotik Interface, an educational web interface for programming, simulating and verifying industrial robots in Vocational Education and Training. The project was created to help students understand the logic of a robotic task before working directly with each manufacturer's specific environment. The tool enables visual block-based programming, generates a neutral representation of the program, displays a simplified 3D simulation of the TCP path and produces industrial code, especially for Universal Robots, with possible extension to ABB and Fanuc. It also includes a telemetry-based verification workflow: a Siemens IOT2040 gateway running Node-RED receives robot data through RTDE, Modbus TCP and a STEP socket, normalises the information and publishes it to the web interface using MQTT. The interface can compare planned steps with points reached by the real robot, introducing concepts such as traceability, diagnosis and error analysis. The system has been developed as an educational prototype over one academic year and should not be considered a certified industrial product or a complete digital twin.
Keywords: industrial robotics; Vocational Education and Training; visual programming; telemetry; educational IoT.
