SOS on coordinate system changes

RobOntario
Hello all.

I have a mature program for part, with fixture program and part program. One of big guy wants to rotate the coordinate system: X as -Y, Y as -X and Z as Z, any easy way to do it?
Can I setup a new alignment when I do the reporting?

Thank you

  • I assume that the big guy wants the CMM axis to match the machining axis.

    If the dimensions are at the end of the program then just do the rotation and reconstruct the report. If dimensions are reported after each feature(s), it's more complicated. Basically, the process would be: create feature, rotate, report, rotate back.

    NOTE: I don't think that the part can be rotated as described. If +X is to be rotated to -Y then +Y would be +X.
