Hexagon Measurement SystemsNo matter what Hexagon measurement equipment or software you use, we want to hear your ideas and suggestions on how we can improve.
Thanks for your assistance in helping us shape the future. |
Have the ability to turn of negative probe rotations. The need is when inside a part if the auto toggle picks a negative A angle it will go rotate under the probe and crash into part
Window Layout Toolbar
Add the Ability to reposition the Restored Saved Layout Icons within the Windows Layouts Toolbar.
Example:
Reposition and Delete Saved User Layouts
To Reposition or delete a saved user layout:
1. Right-click on the toolbar area, and select Customize. The Customize dialog box appears.
2. Press and hold the Shift key on your keyboard.
3. Click and hold the mouse over the icon on the Window Layouts toolbar. The icon becomes movable.
4. Drag the icon outside of the toolbar's boundaries to delete or move to new location within the toolbar.
5. Release the mouse button.
At PC-DMIS startup; Add a (MACHINE HOME) icon to menu screen.
The ability to home the machine at the start of a new work shift should be part of the standard menu features. You should not have to completely shut the machine down to home out the machine. No matter how up to date and complex the new software packages become it is always a good practice to home the machine.
Remove "Measure All iter align features now?"
Probably one of the most obnoxious and useless prompts is the ""Measure All iter align features now?"" It comes up every time you modify a feature related to an iterative, plus one more for every other instance of an iterative alignment in your program. So hypothetically, if you have 3 iterative alignments in your program, and you modify a single point in one of them, you'll receive three prompts,
Not to mention, the prompt does come up inexplicably sometimes. So sometimes when you're hammering through the also obnoxious, barrage of prompts, you get when you change a feature like "Do you want to update measured values", "Do want to make this the default ID", "Update dependent commands", where you may swapping back and forth between selecting "Yes", "No", in rapid fire succession because you're trying to get work done, let's through a command in there that throws the machine into automatic motion regardless of where the probe head actually go inspect something on the other side of the part, smash into said part, and break a four or five grand probe. Splendid... just great...
Vision - Add Delayed Live view setting
Additional view settings such as adding a delay to measured vision features.
Ex. I measure a feature, then for a x.xx seconds (whatever I choose) the live view pauses accordingly to show the measured hits. An additional toggle of accepted and unaccepted hits would also be nice.
USING HELP
With version 2019 the help (F1) is accessible trough the browser. My experience is very bad. The search is slow, opening is slow too. I just can not use it, it is unusable!!! Make it fast and simple like it was before.
Vision Profile 'Arc' Multi Execute
Currently, when executing profiles I've noticed it will sometimes take small segments of arcs, tiny segments, one at a time.
It would enhance the run speed of my programs if it could execute all edges visible.
(Side note: I've also noticed that the scan is much slower than competing products, customers have said things like "I thought It'd be faster" and my boss has even said "I remember XXX Brand being much faster, but maybe I'm wrong")
Warning user of requirements for simultaneous evaluation if the GDT dimension has the same material modifers as a previous dimension
Not many users are aware of the simultaneous evaluation option and tend to dimension separately and thus getting the benefit of the material bonus individually rather than collectively. Could it be a possible if a feature has been dimensioned using the same DRF callout we warn the user that these should be treated as a group i.e. simultaneous evaluation.
Allow Additional Pre-Hit / Retract Distance When calibrating an analogue probe with DCC+DCC
When calibrating an analogue probe, due to the required number of hits (25) it can take a long time. To alleviate this reducing the pre-hit / Retract to say 0.5mm will improve the throughput. This however only works if the tip position is known. If using DCC+DCC calibration could we not have an additional field so the tip position is found with a user-defined larger pre-hit / Retract and then reverts to the smaller user-defined pre-hit / retract post finding tip.
