Backwards compatability with Xact

Kingsld1 vor 4 Jahren in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS aktualisiert von Milton Cortez vor 4 Jahren 7

Want backwards compatibility with Xact measure for GD&T. I have hundreds of programs that would need to be reviewed. I'm in a regulated industry and can just imagine the chaos that would happen with changing to the new scheme. I appreciate the effort and improvements in the update to the new scheme. However, the costs and headaches involved in ensuring that older programs will provide the same results are going to hold us back. I have gotten around updating previous release updates by arguing that the changes are relatively minor and are mainly programming aids.   This is a major change.   

Other alternative would be a way to not allow Xact measurement routines to not run at all.

Late to the party and realize it's probably not possible but still....

Add the option to report out postion of both start and end pts of a cylinder instead of only the worst end. Legacy had this option but the GD&T reporting does not.

By showing both it gives a good indication of how angled the cylinder may be.

Vectors of deviation in CAD protocol

Dominik Braun vor 5 Jahren in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS 0

Hello,

we need to have the option to show the vectors of the deviation in our protocol.

It is possible in the graphical window in PC-DMIS, so why isnt it possible in the "CADONLY" protocol e.g.?

Here is a screenshot what I mean:

Thanks in advance

2021.1__Add unequal tolerance zones for analysis view command

DAN_M_413 vor 5 Jahren in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS aktualisiert von Aaron Baldauf vor 5 Jahren 1

Using 2021.1, an "analysisview" command of a feature control frame that uses the "U Modifier" will ONLY allow us to put on the inspection report an "analysisview" of a BILATERAL tolerance band. 


Please add the capability for us to show the tolerance band as UNEQUAL.

summary view, color scheme, similar to edit window colors

damonh vor 5 Jahren in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS aktualisiert von davehocum vor 5 Jahren 1

add a color scheme to the summary view, similar to the edit window color scheme that can be saved and recalled.

Datum feature in edit feature window

Garrett W vor 6 Jahren in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS aktualisiert von Trevor McLaughlin vor 6 Jahren 1

Add a feature in the screen for editing a feature (plane, cylinder, etc) to assign it as a datum instead of going through dimension datum screen and/or gd&t dimension.

Enable "To Points" toggle in all auto-features

DAN_M_413 vor 6 Jahren in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS 0

Regarding the "To Points" toggle in the auto-feature dialogue box..


Would it be possible to make this toggle work for every type of auto-feature?

Right now, you can only use "To Points" on autocircle, autoplane, and autocylinder. The toggle is "grayed out" for lines, cones, spheres, etc. Adding this functionality would be a good enhancement IMO. 

Thanks for your time,

Move probe to center of calibration sphere before next rotation

Big John vor 6 Jahren in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS 0

In the calibration cycle, the possibility that the probe moves to the center of the calibration sphere before the next rotation move. This is useful if using a small CMM. It saves room and the eliminates the chance of a collision with the CMM support legs.
