Autorun End Park Position

[[Du...]]

Is there a way to disable the End Park position until the last cavity in the pallet? As much as I like watching the dance of the CMM, my management would like slightly faster programs.

Dear Dustin,

I'm afraid that's not possible. Pallet measurement is simply batch processing of a single programme. There is a module called "Pallet Optimizer". This small piece of software connects all the same stylus changes and then executes them one after the other. So there is hope, that there will be only one parkposition at the end of the pallet.
For more info please take a look at your system:

You can go to CNC -> Define end psrk position - use condition from Calypso help file

(getRecordHead("palletlocationnumber")==getRecordHead("lastpalletlocationnumber"))

To have the CMM use the Park position only at the end of the last pallet location the following sytanx can be used with conditions in the park Position commands:

(getRecordHead("palletlocationnumber") == getRecordHead("lastpalletlocationnumber"))

In the Park Position Window, in CALYPSO, right click each movement line and go to condition:


Insert the above syntax in the condition and set "Yes" to execute the command line. Repeat this for every park position strategy line.

This condition will check to see if the current run is equal to the last pallet location number. If it is true it will continue and run the specified command. Else if it is anything but the last position of the pallet it will skip the command.

NOTE: PCM is NOT required to use this option.

From what I understand, it has been communicated from ZEISS CALYPSO Development that this function is being added as standard interface to 7.6.04 as well (CY23 SP1)

Dear,

Thank you for your answer. I am wondering (with or without PCM command) how to manage your condition even if the last part measured on the pallet is the not at the last location pallet number.

For example you have a pallet of 6 parts. But you start the pallet run of only the five first parts.

On condition - getRecordHead("lastpalletlocationnumber")) - does not mean it is las position, but last of selection.
So if you select 1. position as last ( it will run as last one ) then this condition is applied.
