With how common remote work is these days, I'm wondering if anyone has ever been able to obtain an offline seat and a company-supplied workstation to program from home? I'd imagine that a lot of trust and prestige would be needed to be able to do this.
We have the option to work from home, but I prefer to be where the action is.
All our programming is done offline and released to the production floor.
Proving programs out is optional to the programmer, although I prefer that. We do a lot of work on parts that aren't around, so most of the time we don't have a part in hand.
ALousyUser, if you place all the fixturing and rayco components in via CAD model, as well as the machine, you can get a realistic virtual run of the program.
