ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus for determining an angular location on a round object during a current operation in order to facilitate positioning the object for subsequent operation. At a first station, an angular location identifying feature is sensed, and an angle at which a predetermined desired angular location is located with respect to the feature is determined. At a second station, the feature is sensed, the object is indexed from the feature in an amount equal to the angle, and the object is marked at the relocated predetermined desired angular location. Another method eliminates the marking step at the second station, and the subsequent operation is performed instead. Apparatus comprises a first station means and a second station means. The first station means includes means for sensing an angular location identifying feature on the object and measurement means for determining an angle at which a predetermined desired angular location on the object is located with respect to the feature. Second station means includes sensing means for sensing the feature, indexing means for indexing from the feature in an amount equal to the angle, and marking means for marking the object at the relocated desired location.
