Purge plate

EYE+ allows you to take full advantage of your optional Asyril purging system for removing any excess of parts on the platform during production.

Fig. 215 Production scenario with purge plate

  1. [Start production <id>]: Start the production for the first part.

  2. [Pick parts]: Run your production for this part for as long as you need, using either a scenario detailed previously or your own.

  3. [stop production]: Whenever you feel like a purging of the Asycube plate is required (e.g. when the get_part command times out), stop the production to get EYE+ ready to purge the parts from the Asycube.

  4. [start purge <id>]: Get EYE+ in the purge state with the correct vibration parameters for this part as defined in the recipe.

  5. [purge plate <duration>]: Call the purge plate command with a duration as an optional parameter, which defines how long the Asycube will vibrate for. If you don’t provide a duration, the one in the recipe will be used instead.

  6. [stop purge]: Get EYE+ ready to use a new recipe for production.

  7. Start over from step 1 to resume production from a clean platform.
