Reference Dimensions - No Tolerance & Secondary Reporting Options

Kyle Brummans 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by AKASH 2 years ago 2

Two main attributes:

The ability to toggle tolerances off.  (Basic and Reference dimensions)  

The ability to have a second set of dimensional reporting options or several reporting profiles (Dimension Color Settings)

This helps with quality control.  Right now, we either 'open' tolerance or don't report.  There are instances where it is desirable to have values of basics and references with-out it hindering production mentality/reactions.  Often I also output XYZ coordinates for In-Car and zero tolerance them, as the T-value is what's important/desired.

PC-DMIS in one language, the report in another

Jörgen Andersson (vpt se) 8 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 0

I am running PC-DMIS with swedish language setting and thus, the report is also in swedish. However, it would be optimal if I could change the report template language to english - just for the report as we have customers all around the world.


In order to that today, I'd have to either run PC-DMIS in english (all the time) or change language, start PC-DMIS, open my program and print the report.


Would it be possible to add the possibility for the report templates to use a different language (other resources from the .dll's) template only for printing?

Add bent tube to straight tube capabilities

Joe 8 years ago in Metrology Software / TubeShaper updated by neil kay 6 years ago 2

I measure a lot of bent tubes with copes (fish mouth cuts) on the ends of the tubes.  Would like to have the capability in TubeShaper to take  a measured bent tube (with measured cylinders on each end) and convert it to a straight state with the measured end cylinders in the correct orientation.  Then the straight tube can be exported as a CAD model so it can be used in a tube laser machine.

Additional method for measuring long tubes (leap-frogging)

George Koskinas 8 years ago in Metrology Software / TubeShaper updated by neil kay 6 years ago 1

Currently the only method available for measuring long tubes (leap-frogging) is the "Move Tube" where it is required to measure two straights. If all straights are just too big to allow for selection/measurement of any two, this obviously won't work. Perhaps we can add an additional method, similar to that of G-Tube, where we add a displacement T-square, perpendicular to any straight.

Continuing development of Textonly Legacy Reporting

Simon Prodan 9 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 2

To have Legacy Textonly report supporting PC-DMIS Dimensions functionalities, or to have a similar report that is true text report and not just pictures that look like text.
