Stop position - information box

 

Information box to set the stop position for a part (for a machining centre)

 

The 'Production list file' (Plist file) is a file created on transfer which is used by the Homag WoodWop system. It is used when transfer is via method: '8 - Homag Woodwop V4->V8 (MPR/X))'

 

The lines in the Plist file include the stop position. The stop positions are the various fixed points for locating a part on the machining centre.

 

1, 1600003H,1,0,0,0,CASE_SIDE,0,,,,,,,,,,,

2, 1600003H,4,0,0,0,CASE_SIDE,0,,,,,,,,,,,

3, 1600003H,1,0,0,0,CASE_SIDE,0,,,,,,,,,,,

4, 1600003H,4,0,0,0,CASE_SIDE,0,,,,,,,,,,,

5, 1600003H,1,0,0,0,CASE_SIDE,0,,,,,,,,,,,

 

The stop position is typically set by the Machining centre transfer parameters and a rule applies to each part in the Plist file. The rule can be overriden for a part by entering a stop position in this information box.

 

For example:-

 

1, 1600003H,1,0,0,0,CASE_SIDE,0,,,,,,,,,,,

2, 1600003H,4,0,0,0,CASE_SIDE,0,,,,,,,,,,,

3, 1600003H,4,0,0,0,CASE_SIDE,0,,,,,,,,,,,

4, 1600003H,1,0,0,0,CASE_SIDE,0,,,,,,,,,,,

5, 1600003H,4,0,0,0,CASE_SIDE,0,,,,,,,,,,,

 

In the above example the Plist file has an 'alternating rule' for stop postions 1 and 4. This is overridden by a value of '4' in the stop position information box for part 3. The rule 'alternating values' continues from part 4.
