4-2 Configuration and Characterization
4.4 Tool Configuration
A tool consists of a Fluid Dispensing Applicator and nozzle. The Tool Configuration dialog box allows
you to set the offset for each tool and perform a characterization.
4.4.1 Tool Offset
Tool Offset is the X, Y, and Z distance from the lower tooling pin on the Z slide (also called the tool
flange, or tool arm) to the tool tip (end of nozzle). See Figure 4-1. The offset for each tool must be entered
into ECNT so that the robot can position the tool tip accurately when running product programs.
