Export results as a CAD model with a program command
It would be nice to export measurement results to CAD automatically with a part program command. I know it can be done manually but you can't always count on remembering to do it. Maybe an addon to the Print command? Include options for auto indexing like the current PDF or Excell output. Alignment and cad format to be used would need to be part of the parameters for this.
Ability to transfer the configurations from one cmm to another without having to configure INSPECT on each cmm individually.
Unless I overlooked that ability, I haven't found a way yet. We have 10 cmms that currently use STI and transferring one STI menu file to all cmms so the STI menu is the a same on all cmms is very efficient.
Surface scan following the curve on the surface
I would like the option to scan the surface following an irregular, or made up of geometric shapes curve (red) that is on that surface all the way around (sample on the picture)
Start program dialog
PCDMIS should have some customisable deafult run program dialog. For general data inputing before measurment starts, like Operator, machine, sample number, reason for measurtment, etc.
Those dialog shoud be changeable with some Scripting editor or throu some ini file.
Have the recent file menu show the last 10 programs executed instead of just the last 4.
Shouldn't be that hard to do. Lets get it done for 2017 guys.
Add values for assignments
It would be great to add .PA, .PR in extensions for hits, arrays (...)in assignments.
Allow theoretical numbers to be locked on individual features
Allow theoretical numbers to be locked on individual features making it possible to prevent them from changing. This would give us a more elegant solution than turning a theoretical number into an expression by dividing by 1.
Create an actual model from a point cloud
I would like actually create surfaces based on a point cloud
Offer a multi-execute capability so you can get it to execute a specified Measurement Routine 'n' times
....like the MultiExecute Wizard can do.
A possibility to Add "Tolerances" to colors (RGB) like in Hexagon VISI or maybe in a simpler way
We work more and more with colors and PMI`s to reduce drawings to a minimum.
At the moment we are at the point, that we can handle RGB colors in our CAD, in the CAM and in the Viewer.
But in our quality department is it not possbile to work with colors in a fast way, because PC-DMIS shows only RGB codes of the Surfaces (Information Surface)
We would wish a to have a possibility to see a tolerance for every RGB color like in Hexagon VISI.
In our business field all companys work already with the similar color code. (Meusburger, VISI, Hasco, VDWF, ....)
Than you don`t need so much time to add PMI`s, because the colors are so much faster and you understand in few seconds the parts and what you have to measure.
Example how you can at the moment see the color in PC-DMIS, but no Tolerance:
This is how you can see it in Hexagon Visi:
