Purpose
|
|
Setting up the laser cut project means building the manufacturing environment with the laser cut machine as it would be operating in reality.
|
|
|
The machine set up will be copied from a template master workcell. In this master workcell the layout of the cell with the machine, the part positioner and other necessary equipment has been built.
Continue with the fixture assembly from the previous paragraph or load the FixtureCarrier_Clamps.cenlay from the training material folder.
