-
From the Surface section of the action bar,
click Blasting profile
and select
a robot in the work area.

The Blasting profile dialog box appears.

-
You can enter a Name and specify an Index
for the new profile.

-
Select a blasting tool from the Tools list of available tools.

Click to add a blasting tool to the list, and to remove a tool from the list.
-
In the Blasting tab, click the Blasting
color list to select a color for the object.

-
Select Enabled in the Tool state section
for abrasion to occur on the blasted surface. Select Disabled for
no abrasion.

Note:
Several tools can be associated to a robot. They can be activated or deactivated per
profile.
-
In the Simulation parameters section:

-
Tool Range specifies the distance from the nozzle to the
blasted surface.
-
Blasting time specifies the time at each surface point to
produce the ideal 100% abrasion exposure during simulation.
-
Click the Position tab.

-
The current selection in the From list specifies the tool
profile from which the position is defined relative to.
-
The Coordinates section specifies the offsets for
X, Y, Z,
Yaw, Pitch, and
Roll from the current TCP location.
-
Click the Calibration tab.

-
Blasting media specifies the material type used for
blasting. Available types are Silica,
Mineral, and Soda.
-
Standard tool height specifies the height of the blasting
tool cone.
-
Standard tool width specifies the width of the blasting tool
cone.
-
Standard blasting speed specifies the reference robot TCP
speed that will result in 100% abrasion exposure.
-
Blasting delay ON specifies the time delay in blasting
deposition turning on after blasting flow is turned on.
-
Blasting delay OFF specifies the time delay in blasting
depostion turning off after blasting flow is turned off.
-
Click OK to create the new Blasting profile.
The new profile appears in the Profiles side tab:

The profile can be edited by double-clicking the thumbnail in the Profiles side tab.
-
From the Surface section of the action bar, click Surface
Trajctory
and create one
or more surface trajectories as described in Generating Paths.
-
From the Surface section of the action bar, click Generate Robot
Task
and create a task as described in Generating Surface Tasks.
Note:
In the Trigger Parameters section of the Create
Operations dialog box, select the blasting profile created above from the
App. Profile list.

-
Set the Paint Results tab of Simulation
Options for Polishing.
-
Select the task in the Behavior side tab, and click Play in the Compass to simulate the task.
