Spraying parameters
Nozzle diameter
Size Diameter of the spray cone at the nozzle opening.
...
This is represented by the top of the spray cone in the Preview.
...
The distance from the nozzle tip to the surface of workpiece. This should represent the optimal spraying distance.
...
For spraying applications, this distance can be thought of as the tool length, where the TCP is placed at the bottom of the spray cone.
Stanislav: Tool length + holder length.
...
X and Y pattern value
X and Y pattern value settings define the shape and size of the bottom of the spray cone.
...
Set X and Y to different values to create an elliptical bottom shape. This can be used to model a fan-shaped spray pattern.
...
The X and Y pattern values for the cone (/tool ) will align with the TCP. This is visible in the viewport on the Device side.
...
Sets how far the spray can reach and still effectively cover the workpiece. The max effective distance must be larger than the distance to part.
Does this limit the robot paths and kinematics at all? Will the user be presented with an error if they exceed this distance?
Spray rate
The accumulation of spray deposition on the surface in mm/min. A rate of 1 means that the thickness of deposited material would go from 0 to 1 mm in one minute when the tool is stationary.
How to correlate this to cc/min?
