Auto Element Kreis auch mit Teil-Segmente wie an der Optiv (Punkte Auswahl Messbereich) /Auto element circle also with partial segments as at the Optiv (points selection measuring range)

Manuel Seifried 2 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated 2 years ago 1

Meine Idee wäre es bei Auto Element Kreis auch mit Teilsegmenten wie an der Optiv zu arbeiten (Punkte Auswahl Messbereich). Somit könnte man Messbereiche einfügen und separat definieren.

adding comments to cmm report

Richmond 2 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS 0

I want the ability to add comments to reports after a run to explain why some dimensions are red on the report, and to type in the dimension we get when measured manually. 

I dont want the comments to stay there for the next run. So it doesn't function as a label only as a comment for the specific run.

Ability ta add multiple clear points

It would be good to have the ability to add multiple clear points and to configure them individually regarding the axis  movement order.

Option to Delete items referenced by commands within the pop up notification

damonh 2 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS 0

When deleting a feature in the edit window (e.g.  an auto surface point), if that data point has a dimension associated with it, a pop up occurs asking "The following commands reference one or more items you are about to delete: xxxyyyzzz  Are you sure you want to delete these commands?"

Add an option within that pop up, to delete the referenced commands "Yes or No", with a default answer allowed in the setup.  This would eliminate having to go through the routine after deletion and find the dimension, alignment, variable, etc. to delete the referenced command as well as the feature just deleted.  

This would also help to mitigate the later opening of routines that give the error upon opening "the following dimensions have no feature id".

Constructed circle tangent to 2 circles

C2T 2 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by Aug 2 years ago 2

Hello

Being able to make a constructed circle tangent to 2 circles by imposing the diameter would be useful. For the dimensions on gable pins with rounded teeth for example… This exists with tangent to 2 straight lines so why not 2 circles…

Cordially,

In construct circle, need an auto cone to pierce an auto sphere and construct a circle where it pierces it 

Below shows the cone piercing the Sphericle radius to get the Ø18  (the Print is missing the diametrical symbol)

FBM (Feature Based Measurement) add as a Standard Module for PC-DMIS

davehocum 2 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated 2 years ago 0

FBM (Feature Based Measurement) should be added as a Standard Module. Currently this option is only available if your PC-DMIS license is programmed with the Feature Based Measurement module.

2022.1 Help file Using Feature Based Measurement

The Feature Based Measurement (FBM) method is an optional feature in PC-DMIS. FBM functionality is only available if your PC-DMIS license is programmed with the Feature Based Measurement module.

FBM offers collision-free measurement of any dimension in a measurement routine.

Mini routines provide the user interface that enables you to execute a measurement routine that you create with the FBM method. Sub mini routines provide the facility to create the structure to measure tool-based, cell-based, and operation-based features from the measurement routine.

FBM is useful in situations where you want to do the following:

  • Create a measurement routine for a complete, manufactured part and still be able to use the same measurement routine to measure the part, or a single feature, after each operation
  • Quickly measure only selected features; for example, you may want to change tools on a fully-automated manufacturing line
  • Run a partial measurement routine
