The value of end to end angle is 45° in the workspace,but it's 0.4 in the report.

Add a dropdown menu for the contruct feature window

S. Ordelmans il y a 6 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par neil kay il y a 6 ans 0

Ad a drop down menu in the construct feature window to select what kind of feature you want to construct. 

This makes constructing different feature's easier, and faster.

The function i'm looking for is already in place with the auto feature window, here you could start with a vector point, and then select the drop down menu to change to cylinder.

Add due date minders for SMA and CMM maintenance

Spring il y a 6 ans dans Metrology Software mis à jour par neil kay il y a 6 ans 0

Add a due date minder for SMA ,and add a due date minder for CMM maintenance. 


For example, PC-DMIS pop-ups a prompt to remind  the operators  that the  SMA will  expire in 3 months...


because this is closer correlated with  measuring application.

"Manual" Alignment of Pointcloud

darius il y a 6 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par neil kay il y a 6 ans 0

It would be nice to have the opportunity to manually (by using mouse) align pointcloud to cad model, or one pointcloud to other pointcloud and from here make eventualy refine alignment. Idea is to put  with mouse COP on CAD or other COP to lock this on specific area.Thanks to this it would be easier to align only partly scanned surfaces. Today even if I using point pairs sometimes alignment is moving far away from expected place. Actual functionality is working good only if whole part is scanned allround.

Create a dynamic x-form to orientate part quicker, similar to Mastercam or cad cam system.

Printer PDF file location is hidden in editor window.  File saving locations should be highly visible.

Add a calculator function to several menus

Kyle Brummans il y a 6 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par neil kay il y a 6 ans 0

Add a button to several menu's that expands a calculator and assign a hot key to open/close the calculator.

Suggested Locations:

-AutoFeature Menu

-Constructed Feature Menu

-Alignment Menu

-Pattern Menu

-Transformation Menu

-Clip Plane Menu

Huge plus if the calculator had some intuitive dynamic functions.

Color coded edge point preview

Kyle Brummans il y a 6 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par neil kay il y a 6 ans 0


Much like the auto-circle it would be intuitive to have the same color coding on the path lines for edge points.

Currently, auto-circle's first hit is purple and last is orange.

It could also be useful to have say an arrow head or something noticeable for sample hits.

Most of us probably have the orders memorized, but its more intuitive to color code and easier to train with visuals.

When Installing PC-DMIS Check the Locale or Ask user if they wish to work to ASME or ISO standard

david carter il y a 6 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par neil kay il y a 6 ans 0

When we install PC-DMIS Check the Locale or Ask user if they wish to work to ASME or ISO standard as default so the registry key is then set correctly. By default it is set to ASME, but users working to ISO then have to change the Standard each time using Xactmeasure. The situation is worse for legacy as they might be reporting profile tolerance incorrectly  without there knowledge. Most users are not aware of the registry key USEISOCALCULATIONS and even if they do they might not have permissions to change it. We should be more active to ensure users are using the right applicable standard at install time.
