ASSEMBLY_PLANE Statement

/X

/Y

/Z

ASSEMBLY_PLANE {

/POINTS = (

'<coord_x1>', '<coord_y1>', '<coord_z1>', };

'<coord_x2>', '<coord_y2>', '<coord_z2>',

'<coord_x3>', '<coord_y3>', '<coord_z3>')

/SEAM = '<seam name>'

This statement is optional and may be used to define the location of the assembly plane. If not given, the assembly plane will be calculated automatically by minimizing the height of the corners (or edge midpoints) relative to the workshop floor.

X denotes that the normal vector of the assembly plane should be parallel to the x-axis, Y denotes that the normal vector of the assembly plane should be parallel to the y-axis. Z denotes that the normal vector of the assembly plane should be parallel to the z-axis.

POINTS is used to define the assembly plane via three different points. The points must not be co-linear. Frame terms are accepted as x-coordinates, for example, FR23-600, and references to longitudinal positions are accepted as y- and z-coordinates, for example, LP5+200.

SEAM means that the panel will be tilted automatically at first (as if this statement had not been given!). The panel will then be tilted so that the seam will become as parallel as possible to the assembly plane. This is a very specific case and is normally used for two-plates panels only.
