Vision tool rotation on batch runs
I'm running a small, circular spacer part on a VMA-2520 (no probe) and having difficulty successfully running the parts in a batch. As more parts are completed in a batch run the vision tools of various captures seem to be picking up rotation and not capturing the features correctly.
I have the parts laid out on a 1" X 1" grid printed on a transparent vellum sheet so they are evenly spaced.
There are 800+ parts that need to be run so any help figuring out a way to get batch runs working would be most appreciated.
Program:
- Image recognition is used to pick up 2 small cylinder bosses (.040 OD) as points
- Origin set to one point and aligned to the other (CAD alignment is set up with this configuration)
- Plane measured and leveled to
- Cad synced
- Various features are measured: Diameter of the bosses, a center bore, a datum feature and the outer diameter for a profile.
- Datums are aligned to
- Reports generated for features, positions and a profile.
Side Question: is there a way to set up the program so a batch run does not change the starting coordinates? Currently I have to reload the program and choose not to save.
