Surface Section: Primary Area

The primary area of the Surface section provides commands for paint trajectories and tasks, defining paint profiles, and options for analyzing results.

Surface Trajectory
Creates a path to paint by selecting surfaces in the work area.
In the work area, select a surface to create a path on. In the Surface Trajectory panel, click Add/remove geometries to generate surface path and select additional surfaces to add or remove from the Geometries list. Click OK to generate the path.
See Generating Paths
Update Trajectory
Updates a trajectory based on design changes that have occured to its associated surface.
Select the trajectory to update. It is regenerated based on the current surface design.
Surface Task
Creates a surface task with operations that are based on one or more existing surface trajectories.
Select a robot, followed by one or more trajectories. Click OK to create the task.
See Generating Surface Tasks
Update Surface Operations
Updates the robot task when the surface trajectory it was created from has been modified.
Select the task to update.
Paint Profile
Defines the painting behavior for the associated robot.
Select a robot, define the parameters in the Paint profile dialog box, and click OK.
See Defining an Air Brush Paint Profile
Shot Peening Profile
Defines the shot peening behavior for the associated robot.
Select a robot, define the parameters in the Shot peening profile dialog box, and click OK.
See Shot Peening
Blasting Profile
Defines the blasting behavior for the associated robot.
Select a robot, define the parameters in the Blasting profile dialog box, and click OK.
See Blasting
Polishing Profile
Defines the polishing behavior for the associated robot.
Select a robot, define the parameters in the Polishing profile dialog box, and click OK.
See Polishing
Paint Results Options
Controls the display of the painted parts.
Set Paint, Threshold, or None for Display Mode.
See Analyzing Paint Results
Surface Analysis
Analyzes the results of paint and shot peening deposition.
