Indexing Axes (T1)
Starting up indexing axes
Example of 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 16-4
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
