Add physical tube properties, or tags, (wallthickness i.e.) which you can you use to search projects

Besides project names it would be nice to search on other terms. Like wallthickness etc

Add new type of alignement RPS

Nicolas Pétré il y a 7 ans dans Metrology Software / TubeShaper mis à jour par anthony vianna il y a 3 ans 5

From Anoflex Contitech France (and French CO - Laurent Francou):

Add a RPS alignment, using geometric features, all keeping the Tube coordinates.

today, geometric alignements without CAD cannot keep the tube coordinates according to drawings.

Auto Surface Feature

David Courtney il y a 7 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par neil kay il y a 5 ans 2

I know I am way out there this time but please hear me out.  Please add a surface type auto feature.  No matter the surface I want to be able to create an adaptive scan similar to an auto plane adaptive scan feature, such as perimeter, free form, or teach path.  For example, (bad example but here it is) I don't necessarily want to create a cylinder on a radius surface I want to create an auto surface feature but I don't want it to be constrained to the cylinder parameters I want it to be able to be treated the same as I would create a plane adaptive scan.  Another example would be irregular surface geometry. The reasoning is I want to be able to go through a part and create auto features instead of generic scan features to report the profile of each surface.  I think it could be a valuable tool.  Thank you!

CAD model Export

Mitja Smrekar il y a 7 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par neil kay il y a 5 ans 0

I have a program with a CAD model in it, but I do not have a model in any other CAD format (stp, igs, prt...) only .cad from PC-DMIS. I need a function to export CAD model from PC-DMIS to other formats like stp and igs.


Situation is: I have only a PC-DMIS program and I need a model because we can not find that model anywhere.

Separate Clearance Cubes = More efficient probe travel times.

Derek il y a 7 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par neil kay il y a 5 ans 3

When I import my 1-2-3 blocks for fixturing or whatever I bring in, I would like each of them to be able to have their own clearance cube instead of having to have a large cube encompassing the whole set up.  Sometimes with larger fixtures it would definitely speed things up if the probe didn't think it had to move so far away from my part just because the constraints of the CC are limited to the overall size of my imported fixturing.  And why stop there, also make it where if I don't have a fixture model I can manually set up a cube just for that single fixture piece as well.

Addind a part description or part name

SB1 il y a 7 ans dans Metrology Software / Inspect mis à jour par neil kay il y a 5 ans 3

Have the ability to add a Part Description or name below the icon in addition to showing the program name.  Cmm operators will be more certain they are selecting the correct program to execute.

more information in the calibration results window

Aaron Baldauf il y a 7 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par neil kay il y a 5 ans 0

Add more information to the calibration results window like: touch speed, scan speed, move speed, prehit/retract distance and so on. It would help to decide if the calibration has to be done again because of differences in these settings.


Here's an example:

Clearance cube around probe changer

Bill Kulpa il y a 7 ans dans Metrology Software / PC-DMIS mis à jour par neil kay il y a 5 ans 0

Add something like a clearance cube around a probe changer if desired.

Basically like a saftey zone around the rack so that someone cant run probe, probe head, z rail into it while running a program.

Customized IP-labels (allow operator to use alternative labels for IP (i.e. A# instead of IP#).
