[Da...] Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 The other day I programmed a relatively complex mold insert that looked like a three lobed ,evenly spaced group of features. So, i merrily programmed a bunch of space point on one of the lobes, grouped and then patterned the group. The part ran pretty good but they were having trouble dialing in the electrodes. I went out to see, and they showed me a PRINT ! Right there I saw it ! Two of the lobes were at 120 degrees separate but one was at 121.5 degrees ! WHO DOES THAT ???? I started over and reprogrammed the whole part, ( using all single space points) but what a pain in the arse ! The part ran pretty good, but had to do a lot of apologizing ! Remember ! The model is stupid, and so are you . It will do whatever you ask it to even if it's wrong.

It can be a very useful design habit. . Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/9924-models-and-patterns/#findComment-47086 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again, I didn't see the print till after I programmed 😉 Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/9924-models-and-patterns/#findComment-47088 Share on other sites More sharing options...
