Hello,
I have an Arc welding RAPID program with many seams. One of them looks like this:
Code
ArcLStart W007_On, vtoArc, sm01, s_12, fine, R1_tWeld\WObj:=R1_wFix;
ArcL W007_1, vWeld, sm01, s_8, z1, R1_tWeld\WObj:=R1_wFix;
ArcC W007_2, W007_3, Vweld, sm01, s_8, z1, R1_tWeld\WObj:=R1_wFix;
ArcL W007_4, vWeld, sm01, s_8, z10, R1_tWeld\WObj:=R1_wFix;
ArcL W007_5, vWeld, sm01, s_8, z5, R1_tWeld\WObj:=R1_wFix;
ArcLEnd W007_Off, vWeld, sm01, s_8, z1, R1_tWeld\WObj:=R1_wFix;
What I want to do is measure/calculate the seam length programatically. Calculation can take place during normal program execution or in specialised routine (doesn't matter). What is the easiest way to go about it?
Thanks in advance.
