Random placement
Use the Random Placement wizard for multiple parts on a stage
without a fixture.
Before creating a random placement, create a new part program with
reference steps.
Reference steps
To insert reference steps in a part program:
 Click the Record/Edit button on the Program toolbar
 Position the desired reference feature as shown
All parts must have the same orientation on the stage and
be square to the axes of the machine.
The reference feature is a repeatable point to help the
IK 5000 locate the randomly placed parts.
