If you have a 3D model loaded in RoboDK you can create curves from the model by using this option:
- Tools-Create curves
- Move your mouse over an edge and you'll see a preview of the curve that will be created when you click
Also, you can selectProgram-Teach targets on surfaceto create a toolpath from surface points.
fist off, thank you for all of your guys' quick replies!
that i understand, and i will talk to the person who sent me the file and said it would be possible if he has the same file but in STP format.
i didn't simply rename the file however. i tried opening a file that was already in the STP format. after opening it it shows the part with thick blue outlines, the part then dissapears except for the name and reference frame, sometimes it'll show the part again. but all of the times I tried to open it again it causes the program to crash.
i tried editing the path settings you mentioned before to see if that was causing a crash, but that doesn't make a difference.
like i said, i'll try to get the same file but in STP format and try again, but I'm worried it might just crash again.
teaching the path from surface points has proven itself to be a time hungry undertaking though, therefore we wanted to work with finishing lines already included in the drawing.
