Seamname in welding modules

zhang02

Hi

when i make an welding module i allways get seamnames in the module.

Is it possible NOT to have seamnames in the welding module??

Eksampel:ArcLStart [[353.261511625684,49.500001179992,1731.93420922226],[0.411371808043443,0.602793405068322,0.672083043136053,-0.125370369235269],[-1,0,0,0],[9E9,9E9,9E9,9E9,-135,9E9]],v1000,sm1,wd1,fine,tWeldGunWObj:=wRot_1SeamName:="Melrodforarb_Weld_10";

When you are creating your weld just erase the seamname before completing the instruction.  This is the easiest way to remove seamnames.

I use a Java Script file loaded in UltaEdit text editing software to remove all seamnames.  Unfortunately this Java Script is proprietary so I cannot distribute it.  I am also not a Java programmer so I have no idea how to create a script.

You can also use Excel. Try the following:

 

1. Copy and paste the Arc instructions into Excel

-> The text will to into one column

2. Use the "Text To Column" function with the option "Delimited" and "" as delimiter, see snapshot below

 

 

-> You will now get the text into three columns

Column A: The "first part"

Column B: The wobj

Column C: The seamname

 

3. Now you can merge the columns back into one, but excluding the seamname column. Enter the following forumula into the column D

=A2&""&B2&";"

-> The "filtered" instruction will be the result of column D.

 

4. Copy and paste the content of column D into your RAPID program

-> Done!

 

You will probably have more than one line of code in your program. Just copy and paste the forumula to the other lines and it will work, the references are relative and will be adjusted (unless you qualify the reference with "$" which should not be done in this case). It is convenient to the use the "Plus Drag Copy" feature of Excel to copy the formula to the other fields.  (Click in a cell, put the mouse over the lower-right corner (the cursor will change into a plus sign), click and hold left-mouse button and drag down.)
