What's the easiest way to have a flip in a program? The only way I've been able to do it was to have 2 separate programs and then merge them together. I have found its hard to edit the program offline when they are merged together.
STEWY When I flip the part over to measure the backside I put in a message to flip the part over to pause the program. I import the same model but transformed to the position I want. Then do a manual alignment followed by DCC alignment just like you would do on the on a part. HTH

STEWY Check your alignment. Something might be messing you up. When you run the part with seperate programs do you get the same measurement (heights)? Try creating a seperate program with just the alignment and the height. Just to check. HTH
I have everything combined into one program now. In order to get the height I need, I need to run the entire program. I’ll check the alignments tmr. It’s a height from a feature before the flip and after.
STEWY If it was me I would "save as" the program and rewrite it with a alignment. Can you verify with a heigh gage? I use read point on simple parts. You might have better luck with a full alignment. Hope this helps.
