Support / Trim Toolpath
July 25, 2014, 03:22:27 PM
I have generated a toolpath for a cylinder using ISO SRF. Is there any easy way to delete a subset of the resultant points to restrict the end effector to visit points lying only on half of the cylinder?

Support / Tool direction on surface
July 23, 2014, 03:47:47 PM
Hi
I need to scan the surface of a cylinder with a sensor mounted as the tool on a Kuka robot. I have defined a cylinder and used the Kuka PRC SRF ISO block in Grasshopper to define a toolpath. However, the yellow tool lines are all pointing from the surface toward the centre of the cylinder causing the robot to scan inside the cylinder. I need these lines to point out from the surface - how is this best achieved? I am not clear on the ORIENT input of SRF ISO - hows does the location of a point attached to this input affect the toolpath? Should I be using a guide curve for this toolpath?
