Example 2: Indexing axis as linear axis
Workholder with 10 locations.
The distances between the 10 locations are different. The first location is at position -100
mm.
Figure 15-4
The indexing positions for the workholder are entered in table 2:
MD10930 $MN_INDEX_AX_POS_TAB_2[0] = -100
MD10930 $MN_INDEX_AX_POS_TAB_2[1] = 0
MD10930 $MN_INDEX_AX_POS_TAB_2[2] = 100
MD10930 $MN_INDEX_AX_POS_TAB_2[3] = 200
MD10930 $MN_INDEX_AX_POS_TAB_2[4] = 300
MD10930 $MN_INDEX_AX_POS_TAB_2[5] = 500
MD10930 $MN_INDEX_AX_POS_TAB_2[6] = 700
MD10930 $MN_INDEX_AX_POS_TAB_2[7] = 900
MD10930 $MN_INDEX_AX_POS_TAB_2[8] = 1250
MD10930 $MN_INDEX_AX_POS_TAB_2[9] = 1650
Other machine data:
MD10920 $MN_INDEX_AX_LENGTH_POS_TAB_2=10
MD30500 $MA_INDEX_AX_ASSIGN_POS_TAB [AX6] = 2; Axis 6 is defined as indexing
