Step 13 – Programming a Multus U3000 – Edit Approach Move (link movement)

Within the thirteenth video of this 25-video series on programming a Multus U3000 with TopSolid'CAM, I will demonstrate how to edit an approach move, also called link movement.

If you recall from our last video, our simulation was successful – there were no collisions. But, the way the drill approached was a bit concerning. The approach move was a little too close to the lower turret for comfort.Step 13 - Programming a Multus U3000 - Edit Approach Move (link movement)

TopSolid has a feature called link movement editing that allows easy adjustment of a tool’s approach. Rather than utilizing the automatic mode that resulted in a slightly nerve-wracking approach result, I activate the manual mode so that I can make the needed adjustments.

As you watch the demonstration video, you will see that a very easy edit to the approach move produces a much more comfortable operation.
