Hi,

For Palletising with several mirrored pick and place points, I’d like to mirror a workobject.

Rotating the workobject is not good enough because the z-axis turns negative.

Is it Possible to mirror a workobject or is there only a fixed axis-cross which can be translated and rotated??

kind regard

Ruud

A frame itself cannot be completely mirrored. Only its position. Any coordinate system including work objects and robtargets must follow the **right-hand rule**.
