SOS on coordinate system changes

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

  • The big guy wanted to match car coordinates system. I would like to export 2 coordinates system from fixture. One is previous one , the other is rotated one. At the end of part program, import the rotated one to do the reporting for ABC. And change the DEF in part program too.
    by the way, can we change X Y Z at alignment by 90 degree without calling any features?
  • yes.
    align/rotate A degrees about B Axis.

    Also if you are fundamentally changing the entire routine, and your cad is maligned, you can open Edit-> Graphic Display Window-> CAD Assembly
    then within there, rightclick on the entire cad assembly file and select "transform". you can rotate and translate the native cad origin to anything you want.
