When creating solid models for use in setup assemblies, follow these rules for setting up the setup assembly origin and coordinate axes:
Standard Table
With a standard table, set:
- the origin at bottom left corner of the top of the table; and
- the Z axis perpendicular to the table, directed outwards from the top face of the table.
For example:
Tombstone
With a Tombstone, set:
- the origin on top of the table on the tombstone's axis of rotation; and
- the Y axis parallel to the tombstone's axis of rotation of the tombstone, directed outwards from the top face of the table.
For example:
4-Axis Table
With a 4-Axis Table, set:
- the origin on top of the table, on the table's axis of rotation; and
- X axis parallel to the table's axis of rotation, directed outwards from the top face of the table.
For example:
5-Axis Table
With a 5-Axis Table, set:
- the origin on top of the table, on the table's axis of rotation; and
- the Z axis parallel to the table's axis of rotation, directed outwards from the top face of the table.
For example:
