In my project i have the following task:
Place parts on the specific locations on a plate. The plate moves on a conveyor that is stopped with stopping pistons. It can have about 2mm tolerances in x and y axe's. (this can also cause a slight rotation if one end is at +1mm and the other end is at -1mm offset)
The plane of the conveyor of the plate is on UFRAME 4
I am detecting a fixed point in the plate by a camera and calculating an offset value for the parts to be placed on the plate. Although this method now serves me well, should the rotation of the plate increase, i would need to compensate for that, which is not so easy unless going in to trigonometric calculations.
I would like to create a new frame, say UFRAME 5. To be able to setup this frame, i would need to set the origin point of the frame. Which i have already done, it is the offset value that i calculated. But i need to get that point in the world coordinates which i have not figured out how to do. Any pointers would be welcome.
Thank you in advance.
