Alignment Help

Jegley
Do I need to physically perform an alignment before programming the rest of the moves? I assume not but I cant figure out how to get around this.

What I've done is programmed all of the features. First a cylinder and plane (for alignment) in manual mode, and the rest of the features dcc mode. When I hit execute I first manually measure the cylinder and plane, then dcc takes over and tries hitting off in space. It seems like its using the pre-programmed coordinates for hits rather than adjusting the dcc hits based on the alignment.

  • I wouldn't do a manual cylinder. You are leveling to a plane, so just do a circle. The cylinder can be done in DCC.

    Also, do not use spaces or special characters in your features names. Use letters, numbers, and underscores.

    After "27 Spline Face", why is manual mode reenabled? I'd be curious as to how your additional alignments are.
