Control Information for Plate Jigs

AVEVA Marine Environment

IPs for this program can be given in an ordinary ASCII file with the fixed name platejigs.ip, residing on the directory assigned to the environment variable SB_SHIP.

The following list shows all possible default parameters.

[ANGLEALONG, <angle_a>,]

[ANGLECROSS, <angle_c>,]

[CUTOUTRADIUS, <radius>,]

[ENGLISH,]

[FORGET,]

[FRENCH,]

[JIGINFO_DELTA, <dist>,]

[MAXJIGHEIGHT, <max_height>,]

[MINJIGHEIGHT, <min_height>,]

[SWEDISH,]

[MINADIST, <dist>,]

The order of the IPs is irrelevant.

ANGLEALONG, <angle_a>,

ANGLECROSS, <angle_c>,

These IPs are used for calculations of intervals along seams for automatic welding. The IPs specify angles (in degrees) between the assembly plane and the tangents on the seams giving the boundary conditions for the intervals. This means that these angles must not be exceeded in any part of an interval.

CUTOUTRADIUS, <radius>,

By this IP it is possible to change the cutout radius, see the Circular cutout for seam image on Plate Jigs, from the default value 75 mm to the value <radius>.

ENGLISH,

If this IP is given, the text on the resulting listings will be in English. This is the default language.

FORGET,

If this IP has been given, the surface elements will be obliterated from the work area if read from the data bank.

FRENCH,

If this IP is given, the text on the resulting listings will be in French.

JIGINFO_DELTA, <dist>,

This IP is used when calculating information for checking of curved panels on jigs in production. This IP specifies successive distances along reference lines in the assembly plane, where checking measures between these lines and the corresponding boundary seams are to be calculated.

Definition of DIST1

MAXJIGHEIGHT, <max_height>,

If this IP does not exist, <max_height> will be set to 1500 mm. If a jig part is higher than <max_height>, it will be cut off as shown in the Side view of plate jig image (refer to Plate Jigs)

MINJIGHEIGHT, <min_height>,

If this IP does not exist, <min_height> will be set to 1000 mm. The distance between the floor and the panel will be se <min_height> mm, refer to the Side view of plate jig image on Plate Jigs.

SWEDISH,

If this IP is given, the text on the resulting listings will be in Swedish.

MINADIST, <dist>,

If given, <dist> is the minimum distance from the panel edge to the first plate jig. It is also the distance from the last plate jig to the panel edge.

If not given, the default 600 mm will be used in the formula A=min(0.2*D,MINADIST)
