Contour Cutting 5-3
Alignment methods:
1. X-Alignment : counterbalances a “rotated design” problem. For this
method, the origin and one point along the x-axis must be specified. This
method only rotates the contour. It does not require any distance
parameters. This is the fastest and easiest method. It is advised to use this
method with small sheets (up to A3 (11” x 17”)).
2. XY-Alignment : counterbalances the “rotated design” and “skewed
design” problems. For this method, the origin, one point along the x-axis
and one point along the y-axis must be specified. This method rotates and
skews the drawing. It does not need any distance parameters. This method
is the most precise method without using any distance parameters.
3. XY-Adjustment : counterbalances the “rotated design”, “skewed design”
and “Incorrectly scaled design” problems. For this method, the origin, one
defined point along the x-axis and one defined point along the y-axis must
be specified. This method rotates, skews and scales the drawing. It requires
two parameters (x_distance and y_distance). These distances define the
position of the two points along the axes . This is the most accurate manual
alignment method.
