Mini plan A & B


---
 Share

Recommended Posts

I developed a dimensional layout with two mini plans A and B.

The alignment is taking 14 minutes.

In the case that Plan A passes, I have to run Plan B.

If plan A’s report is ok, how can I run mini Plan B without performing alignment?

Thank you,

Your alignment features dont have to be your datum features, meaning if your alignment is taking so much time because it is scanning a large plane or cylinder, copy it and reduce it to 4 points for a plane or 2 circles of 3 to 5 points each for a cylinder. i'm assuming it takes so long because of a loop & break condition. then later in the program scan your big features only once.
Use the alignment is just to 'find' the part.

If both plans use the same alignment and the part has not been moved then you can un-check the clear existing box in the start menu and run plan B, it will use the current alignment.
