How to get the curve object generated by RoboDK CAM Machining Project

#1
Hello,
I am currently exploring RoboDK's CAM / Machining Project workflow.
I would like to ask whether it is possible to access the curve object that is internally generated from the machining settings.
From what I observed, the Machining Project seems to compute the number of points along the toolpath / curve, so I assume there is some internal curve or point sequence being created.
My question is:
  • Is there any API method to retrieve that generated curve object directly?
  • If not, is there any way to access the corresponding points / path data that the machining settings produced?
Thank you!

It is currently not possible to extract the machining curve generated by the RoboDK CAM.

Why do you need this curve?

One option is to create a robot program and export it as a list of points in CSV (using the CSV post processor).

Hi Albert,

Thanks for your reply.

I want the curve object to analyze my machining process. I want to use these points to construct a surface that can do the registration to the 3D image.

I find another way to get the curve. I get the instruction list from the program, so I finally can generate the surface.
