Runtime Align Part

Runtime Align Part

CMM-Manager tracks all alignment steps until the Reference Frame is determinate (fully constrained), at which time it will automatically synchronize the part program and CAD model to the current part location.

When to use Runtime Align Part

  1. Whenever the Reference Frame is not determinate, such as a cylindrical part with no rotational alignment feature.
  2. When additional alignments are created after the first complete Reference Frame.
