ManufacturingMachiningAxis (Object)

ManufacturingMachiningAxis defines a set of methods to manage a Machining Axis System or an Origin.

Properties


Property Origin() As
This property returns the interface which manages if instruction os used as an Origin or as a Machining Axis System. If instruction is an Origin, Origin is set to 1, 0 otherwise.
Example:
The following example returns in origin the attribute to provide if instruction is used as a Machining Axis System or an Origin : 
 ...
 Set myInstruction  = ... 
 Set MyOrigin = myInstruction.Origin
Property OriginGroup() As
This property returns the interface which determines the origin group of the instruction if used a an Origin.
Example:
The following example set the Origin Group to 5. 
 ...
 Set myInstruction  = ... 
 Set myInstruction.OriginGroup = 3
Property OriginNumber() As
This property returns the interface which manages the origin number of the instruction if used a an Origin.
Example:
The following example set the Origin Number to 3. 
 ...
 Set myInstruction  = ... 
 Set myInstruction.OriginNumber = 3

Methods


Sub GetOriginPoint( x, y, z)
Gets the Origin of a Manufacturing Machining Axis System used as Origin.
Example:
The following example gets MfgAxisSystem with PointOrigin as an Origin Point and with ProductOrigin a belonging product. 
 Dim MfgAxisSystem As ManufacturingMachiningAxis
 Set MfgAxisSystem = ...
 Dim PointOrigin As CATSafeArrayVariant
 Dim ProductOrigin As Product
 MfgAxisSystem.GetOriginPoint (PointOrigin)
Sub GetOriginXDirection( x, y, z)
Gets the Origin X direction of a Manufacturing Machining Axis System used as Origin.
Example:
The following example gets MfgAxisSystem with origin X direction in DblMathDirection. 
 Dim DlbMathDirection As Double(3)
 Dim MfgAxisSystem As ManufacturingMachiningAxis
 Set MfgAxisSystem = ...
 MfgAxisSystem.GetOriginXDirection (DblMathDirection)
Sub GetOriginYDirection( x, y, z)
Gets the Origin Y direction of a Manufacturing Machining Axis System used as Origin.
Example:
The following example gets MfgAxisSystem with origin Y direction in DblMathDirection. 
 Dim DlbMathDirection As Double(3)
 Dim MfgAxisSystem As ManufacturingMachiningAxis
 Set MfgAxisSystem = ...
 MfgAxisSystem.GetOriginYDirection (DblMathDirection)
Sub GetOriginZDirection( x, y, z)
Gets the Origin Z direction of a Manufacturing Machining Axis System used as Origin.
Example:
The following example gets MfgAxisSystem with origin Z direction in DblMathDirection. 
 Dim x,y,z As Double
 Dim MfgAxisSystem As ManufacturingMachiningAxis
 Set MfgAxisSystem = ...
 MfgAxisSystem.GetOriginZDirection (x,y,z)
Sub SetOriginPoint( iPoint, iProduct)
Sets the Origin of a Manufacturing Machining Axis System used as Origin.
Example:
The following example sets MfgAxisSystem with PointOrigin as an Origin Point and with ProductOrigin a belonging product. 
 Dim MfgAxisSystem As ManufacturingMachiningAxis
 Set MfgAxisSystem = ...
 Dim PointOrigin As AnyObject
 Dim ProductOrigin As Product
 MfgAxisSystem.SetOriginPoint (PointOrigin,ProductOrigin)
Sub SetOriginPointByCoordinates( x, y, z)
Sets the Origin of a Manufacturing Machining Axis System used as Origin by coordinates.
Example:
The following example sets the Origin MfgAxisSystem at coordinates x,y,z. 
 Dim MfgAxisSystem As ManufacturingMachiningAxis
 Set MfgAxisSystem = ...
 MfgAxisSystem.SetOriginPointByCoordinates(x,y,z)
Sub SetOriginXDirection( x, y, z)
Sets the Origin X direction of a Manufacturing Machining Axis System used as Origin.
Example:
The following example sets MfgAxisSystem with origin X direction in DblMathDirection. 
 Dim DlbMathDirection As Double(3)
 Dim MfgAxisSystem As ManufacturingMachiningAxis
 Set MfgAxisSystem = ...
 MfgAxisSystem.SetOriginXDirection (DblMathDirection)
Sub SetOriginZDirection( x, y, z)
Sets the Origin Z direction of a Manufacturing Machining Axis System used as Origin.
Example:
The following example sets MfgAxisSystem with origin Y direction in DblMathDirection. 
 Dim x,y,z As Double
 Dim MfgAxisSystem As ManufacturingMachiningAxis
 Set MfgAxisSystem = ...
 MfgAxisSystem.SetOriginZDirection (x,y,z)
Sub SetPartAxisSystem( iPAS, iProduct)
Sets the Part Axis System of a Manufacturing Machining Axis System.
Example:
The following example sets MfgAxisSystem with PAS as a Part Axis System and with ProductPAS a belonging product. 
 Dim MfgAxisSystem As ManufacturingMachiningAxis
 Set MfgAxisSystem = ...
 Dim PAS As AxisSystem
 Dim PASProduct As Product
 MfgAxisSystem.SetMachiningAxisSystem (PAS,PASProduct)
