15. To create a polyline from individual path segments, select the path segments to
include in the Polyline.
16. Select the Teach menu.
17. Select
Polyline -> From Selected Lines
.
If the endpoints of the path segments do not match up, PathMaster® will ask to match up
the endpoints. If you do not to match up the endpoints the polyline will not be made. If you
select match up the endpoints, the polyline will use the best fit.
Figure 101: PolyLine Point Match Up
When a polyline is made from individual path segments, the tool parameters will be from
the first path segment in the series. The speeds for each path segment will be kept.
WARNING! PathMaster® will use the tool used in the first segment for all the segments.
Make sure all individual paths segments in a polyline use the same tool.
18. To edit a polyline, double click on the path and change the command in the edit
window. Refer to Section 7.5.
Polyline3D (Legacy and DMC2000)
A Polyline3D is a single continuous dispensing path that allows motion in the X, Y, and Z
Axes. There are two ways to make a polyline. Individual path segments (2D/3D lines or
Arcs) can be made and then changed to a polyline, or you can use the Polyline tool.
Figure 102: Programmed 3D Polyline Command
New Polyline3D
When you teach a segment in a polyline, the last point of the previous segment is used as
the first point of the new segment. For example, it is only necessary to teach two points of
a polyline arc (that is not the first segment of the polyline) because the first point will be
the last point of the previous segment.

1. Open the Polyline3D function.
2. Select a programming tool from the Polyline toolbar on the left.
Figure 103: Polyline3D Teach/Edit
3. Teach the points necessary for the tool selected, input the coordinates or use the
teach pendant.
4. Set the Path Speed.
As you make each segment, it is added to the command list on the left of the Polyline
program table. The polyline is limited to 2047 points for all segments.
5. Select the command from the Command list and set the Dispensing Parameters.
6. To edit the points and speed for each segment, select a segment in the command
list and select the “
Edit Point” button or the “Edit Speed” button.
The Polyline can also be exploded into individual path segments and modified on the main
PathMaster® program table.
7. Once the Polyline is complete select “Done” to save the changes or select “Cancel”
to exit and not save changes.

10. Select

.
If the endpoints of the path segments do not match up, PathMaster® will ask to match up
the endpoints and the polyline will use the best fit. If you do not to match up the endpoints
the polyline will not be made. Refer to Figure 101.
The tool used for the first segment and the θ
(Theta) position, will be used for the 3D
Polyline command. This function is helpful when dispensing gaskets and odd shaped
adhesive patterns where it is necessary to change height but have a continuous flow of
material.
11. To edit a polyline, double click on the path and change the commands in the edit
window. Refer to Section 7.5.
