Datum Precedence Table Within Alignment Utilities

Brad Accornero 6 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 0

As a new user I feel a useful feature would be a live datum precedence table that updates as datums are locked down, identical to the one used in the CMM 101 class. So for instance in the alignment utilities dialog you select PLN1 as your Z+ level, the table updates with check marks under Z, V, and W. At which point you can clearly see what remains to be locked down (X,Y,U).

PCDMIS Settings copy from public

romeo matkovic 6 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 1

Will be useful to have automatic procedure when we install new pcdmis release when installation procedure finish to ask if you want to copy settings or not from previous version. For example we use our own reporting and QDAS settings and always I need to copy - paste all folders from public from previous version to new.

When we install new SP we need to be careful because new installation overwrite old settings with default.

Probe the intersection point between two straights with a small angle

Abel Méndez 6 years ago in Metrology Software / TubeShaper updated by anthony vianna 4 years ago 1

I would like that existed an option to be able to probe manually the intersection point between two straights that form a small angle (5 degrees, for example).

This option was implemented in Docs or GTube.

PCDLRN.exe closing (Exit) improvement.

davehocum 6 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 0

PCDLRN.exe closing issue is one of PC-DMIS most coming issue that never been completely solved. PC-DMIS is the only software that I have ever used that needed the Task manager to end the software at this level. How many years will it take Hexagon to completely fix this issue. If you use PC-DMIS, you will sooner than later get to know the Task Manager very well.

Intervention limit for certain characteristics instead of general evaluation

BusamPWO 6 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 0

Hello everybody,

We are looking for a way to define a Limit of Intervention for our workers for certain characteristics.

The Background to his is that it does not help us to tighten the Intervention Limits for the complete Evaluation because in punching Technology we deliberately always run holes on the largest possible Diameter and then These must not be marked accordingly.


Hallo zusammen,

wir sind auf der Suche nach einer Möglichkeit, dass wir für unsere Werker für bestimmte Merkmale individuelle Eingriffsgrenzen festlegen können. Hintergrund ist, dass es uns nicht hilft, wenn wir die Eingriffsgrenze für die komplette Auswertung anziehen da wir in der Stanztechnik beispielsweise Löcher bewusst immer auf dem größten möglichen Durchmesser produzieren und diese dann aber nicht entsprechend als Eingriffsgrenzen Verletzung gekennzeichnet werden dürfen. 

Ziel: Eingriffsgrenze für einzelne Merkmale anstatt komplettes Protokoll.

Excel form: Export Bonus value from the material condition calculation

Liviu 6 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 6 years ago 0

In the new Excel form, if i export a FCF dimension that uses Material condition, I have no information about the bonus value that was used, but only the nominal/tolerance values.

If my Excel form uses a formula to calculate deviations or other values in excel i will get a wrong calculation.
