Holes sorting

The holes sorting window allows you select one of the type of sorting using some parameters to sort holes list.

The system has four pattern of holes sorting: <Rectangular>, <Circular (Rings)>, <Circular (Sectors)>, <Optimal>.

The pattern <Rectangular> allows you to sort the holes along XY rows. This type of sorting has the following parameters:

• — starting position of calculation rows

• — angle to rotate rows

• — distance between rows

• — direction to calculate drilling trajectories (Available values: < Top-down >, < Bottom-up >)

• — order of moving between rows (Available values: <One way>, <ZigZag>, <Optimal>)

• — change order in the opposite direction

If <Start point> is unchecked then the system will select first hole of drilling trajectories.

The pattern <Circular (Rings)> allows you to sort the holes along the rings located from specified center. T his type of sorting has the following parameters:

• — center of calculation rings

• — angle to set start position

• — distance between center and first ring

• — distance between rings

• — direction to calculate drilling trajectories (Available values: < Clockwise >, < Counter-clockwise >)

• — direction to calculate drilling trajectories (Available values: < Outside to inside >, < Inside to outside >)

• — order of moving between rings (Available values: <One way>, <ZigZag>, <Optimal>)

The pattern <Circular (Sectors)> allows you to sort the holes using sectors of a circle. T his type of sorting has the following parameters:

• — center of calculation sectors

• — angle to set start position

• — distance between sectors (There are two input mode: <Count> and < Degrees >)

• — direction to calculate drilling trajectories (Available values: < Clockwise >, < Counter-clockwise >)

• — direction to calculate drilling trajectories (Available values: < Outside to inside >, < Inside to outside >)

• — order of moving between sectors (Available values: <One way>, <ZigZag>, <Optimal>)

The pattern <Optimal> is similar to < Optimal > in < Strategy > except for configurable settings.

This type of sorting has the following parameters:

• — starting hole to calculation optimal drilling trajectories

• — change drilling trajectories in the opposite direction

If < Start point > is unchecked then the system will select first hole of drilling trajectories.
