How to Stop Stretch Wrapper Rotation When Turntable Rotates

Component Modeling
1

Hi all,

I’m using the Stretch Wrapper machine in Visual Components.

I removed the ReserveInterference because I don’t need it. But now, when the turntable rotates, the wrapper also rotates, How to freeze or lock the rotation?

My goal:

  • Turntable should rotate.
  • Wrapper should stay in place (no rotation).
    Do I need to change the geometry link, behavior, Python script, or expressions?
    Please help me understand how to lock the wrapper so it doesn’t move with the turntable.

The Stretch Wrapper is configured to be connected/attached on a conveyor path, so if the path moves, it will move.
I don’t think you will be able to keep the wrapper and turntable as 2 different components without a bit of Python programming, and even that might not look so nice. I would change this component to include the turntable behaviour.
There is a video about behaviours in components, with an example of turntable if you need: Common behaviors in component modeling | Visual Components Academy

Found another solution — using the Detach command to unlink the Wrapper and Turntable. This stops the Wrapper from rotating when the Turntable rotates.
