Add ISO286 tolerance choice possibilities (h5, JS6 etc) to new size window, like old location dimension

Gábor Tóth 9 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS • updated by neil kay 7 years ago • 3

Add ISO286 tolerance choice possibilities (h5, JS6 etc) to new size window, like old location.

Actual we have a minor bug in 2017 R2 SP5 If we choice outer diameter 8 h5 in location first the minus tolerance appear positive. If we push create after the good negative appear in edit window and reopen the dialog we show negative too. But firstly show positive :-(.

Is new size type
analysis we need to type the tolerance manually. In these place would
be great if we can to input ISO 286 tolerance too...

Reporting

dslosar 9 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS • updated by neil kay 7 years ago • 1

Hello my name is Daniel Ślosarczyk on pc dmis has been working for 6 years. I miss reporting cad models and cut models in the report. In addition, the report could be more intuitive to make quick screans (see reporting polyworks)

Multiple Pattern Names

dsylvester 9 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS • updated by neil kay 7 years ago • 4

When programming multiple features in order like:

CBORE_1

CBORE_DEPTH_1

HOLE_1

It would be nice if you could copy/paste with pattern this entire pattern and save the names of all not just have everything come up as HOLE_1, HOLE_2, HOLE_3...

Time consuming to rename all of the counter bores and depths.

Mesh

Gábor Tóth 9 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS • updated by Neil KAY (Hexagon) 5 months ago • 4

It would be nice if we can handle STL by surface mesh. Pointcloud is not usable...

Some youtube demo about pointcloud operation is also much better to help to our work.

Practical trick and tip etc...

When using executing program parts by CTRL + E, PCDMIS automatically swings to the last programmed probe position from the program.

Unfortunately alsothis position is skipped by an IF / GO command.

 Here would be a safety requestion befor the swivel useful.

Manual Controller Specifications - Jog Box Functions

Anthony Fotion 9 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS • updated by Neil KAY (Hexagon) 5 months ago • 2

Hey guys,


I was thinking this morning how nice it would be to be able to specify with your jog box or even form the machine directly set move distances while programming directly online.

Example: I program a lot of thinks that are almost 2 dimensional so it is hard to fixture so we simply just change parts run a quick manual alignment however sometimes it can be tedious to go take and find those manual points but still get it close.

So if you are programming without CAD and not offline and you want the machine to move what you know to be 10mm you can have an options to move in Z+ Z- X+ X- ect. that exact amount instead of feathering the stick to where you want it given the option to change desired distant in seconds. Usually we know where we want to go in each direction we just don't know how far but we know roughly and we know which direction we want. This can make manually take points slightly more uniform as well short of going back through your code and just adjusting your coordinates.

I am not sure if this is possible with current jog boxes or windows in pc-dmis but our machine has an older style j box with no screen or anything. So a window for quick input directions in pc-dmis and or on the jog box would be awesome.
