6.2.2 Shim Offset
Function
FlexPLP robot path targets can fit different types of car body. New feature is
designed for user to configure specific offset and apply to different PLP applications.
To fit different types of car body, several size of shims are installed manually to
set offset position for different car bodies. But this strategy wastes a lot of time
and labor force.
After the new shim offset function applied, shims were never used to improve
precision. The background program can calculate shim offset values for PLP paths
automatically through input offset value for PLP robots. This feature is designed
to give user a more effective way to change and position work piece. No additional
hardware is needed because friendly user interface takes everything easily to
configure shim offset parameters.
