External Alignment

CMM5150
Hello group members,

I was wondering if there is anyway to open .aln files? I need to manually align a part since the program is going to run on a new machine and the program does not have manual alignment. The program only recalls external alignments.

Thank you

  • They can only be read by PC-Dmis. However, if you create a new PC-Dmis routine with just the STARTUP alignment active, you should be able to determine where the external alignment's origin is, along with what it's primary, secondary and tertiary axes are. This is the code you would need...

    RECALL/ALIGNMENT,INTERNAL,STARTUP
    ASSIGN/V5= external alignment name.ORIGIN
    ASSIGN/V6= external alignment name.XAXIS
    ASSIGN/V7= external alignment name.YAXIS
    ASSIGN/V8= external alignment name.ZAXIS
