Auto High Point
3.7 MR3
I have used Auto High Point in various programs and it has always served me well.
However, in all of those cases I was in On-Line mode.
I am working on a program Off-Line and just noticed that the 3 points I am using show the actuals as .0295 off nominal. This is exactly 1/2 the probe dia.
PNT4 =AUTO/HIGH POINT,SHOWALLPARAMS = YES
THEO/0,4.3745,4.1207,1,0,0
ACTL/-0.0295,4.3745,4.1207,1,0,0
TARG/0,4.3745,4.1207,1,0,0
THEO_THICKNESS = 0,RECT,$
AUTO MOVE = NO,DISTANCE = 0.5,RMEAS = None,None,None
INCREMENT = 0.025,TOL = 0.01,BOX,WIDTH = 0.1,LENGTH = 0
CENTER = 0,4.3745,4.1207
I have my part CAD wedded to the Fixture Cad and so when I am probing the part the nominals look OK (Off-Line of course).
Since I don't yet have a part or fixture I can't check to see if this is going to screw things up or not.
I have 10 different part/fixture programs to write for this project and I would sure hate to get them all done only to find out I have a problem.
What follows is a code from a point in a prototype program.
Same setup here. The code shows results after measurement.
You can see that the nominals/actuals are pretty close.
PNT7 =AUTO/HIGH POINT,SHOWALLPARAMS = NO
THEO/0,4.3814,4.3387,-1,0,0
ACTL/-0.0023,4.3852,4.3388,-1,0.0000108,0.00023
TARG/0,4.3814,4.3387,-1,0,0
Any words of wisdom?
