Gantry_Return_Home
This function block will move all gantry axes back to the home position as defined by the home positions in the
. If configured, the Z axis will move to home first, then the X and Y axes will move together. This
sequence was designed to prevent mechanical interferences with objects in the work coordinate system during
the homing process. This block uses the MC_MoveAbsolute function block from the PLCopenPlus firmware
library. It is assumed that the home location has been previously determined either by using the
function block or because the system uses absolute encoders that have been calibrated to the physical machine.
