extract point from edge point

SiSkebab 1 jaar geleden in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS bijgewerkt door Ale 1 jaar geleden 3

When I create an edge point, there should be an option so I can extract the points with the appropriate move

Add math selector of tolerance zone for profile with datum

Aaron Baldauf 1 jaar geleden in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS bijgewerkt door Neil Challinor 1 jaar geleden 1

Add a math selector of the tolerance zone when evaluating a profile with a datum (line or surface)

At the moment it automatically uses the "Default" math. It should be possible to use the "LSQ" math.

When evaluating a profile without datum this is already possible.

Reasons:

  • Default math will still be available (to evaluate according to the standard)
  • With "LSQ" math, one can better see the general form of the part, outliers are clearly identified
  • "LSQ" math gives more repeatable results (better for MSA)

I understand that the "Default" math is the one we should use to measure according to the standard

but it can be difficult to understand the result it delivers. "LSQ" math gives easier to understand results witch is crucial to adjust the machine.

See this example:

Make Prehit and Retract together as one adjustable setting.

Make Prehit and Retract together as one adjustable setting. Why do we need to have 2 separate settings?

Scans and Cad model match problem

Selahattin Akkaya 1 jaar geleden in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS 0

After we end up our offline programs. We saw that after re runing  on offline scans turns in to the Master (they programmed at findnoms). And stays away from the cad model. Is there any way to stop this change?


Solutions:

If you operate the collision test it will relocate on cad model.

At measured programs scan results could not match the cad model. Because of that we can not analyse our part results.  Is there any solution for that too?  Capture.PNG

Auto Dimension Button

Chris Bittle 1 jaar geleden in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS 0

I would like to have a button to turn on or off the Auto Dimension feature.  The current method is not an ideal workflow.  It is either always on or always off.  If I could turn it off/on from an icon or from the MSE, then that would be extraordinary.

Improve renaming of Datums

Aaron Baldauf 2 jaar geleden in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS bijgewerkt 1 jaar geleden 2

When an existing Datum gets renamed the GD&T commands don't get updated and still display the old letter.

This should get fixed and handled like the renaming of other features (like circles).

looking perpendicular at the solid model

Selahattin Akkaya 2 jaar geleden in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS 0

Hi guys,

There should be a button in Graphic View to be able to look at the part on angled surfaces perpendicular to their surfaces.

It's like the Normal View button on Catia.

See below picture..

Ability to queue parts to run

zachr 2 jaar geleden in Metrology Software / Inspect bijgewerkt 2 jaar geleden 4
It would be nice to have the ability to queue a part to run after the current part is done running. We have quite a few production run parts that machinists run on the CMM but they do not want to wait until the current part is finished before they can set theirs up. It would be nice for them to be able to queue their part, enter in all applicable trace-field information, and walk away, knowing that the part will run when the current part(s) are done.

Password lock for individual routines

Prasanna Vemanna 2 jaar geleden in Metrology Software 0

Use case: Looking for password protection for individual routines, We have the same version of pc-dmis just 1 online version used by 2 or 3 different users for creating and executing programs. User A wants to lock the program for editing. But any user should be in a position to execute that particular program without having to edit. if editing is required, it should be done by User A or one with a known password. Same for User B, C, etc., In this way user A keeps modifying his own written programs without allowing access to other users.  Somewhat similar I know is supported by Protect of PC-DMIS, but the workflow I look for is simple and easy, protect is a much mixed and complicated workflow.  just have an option to lock it whenever required without having to install add-ons. etc.,

Allow R (Radius) or Ø for features in FCF

robert radley 2 jaar geleden in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS bijgewerkt 2 jaar geleden 1

Allow R (Radius) or Ø for features in FCF 


Currently PC DMIS Software only allows Ø callout in FCF except in the Legacy FCF. I have drawing callouts where a Radius is used [ SEE ATTACHED PNG] This causes MMC to be incorrectly reported. Even the legacy does not allow Both R and Ø callouts to be reported differently in a single True Position FCF. You must choose one or the other and Primary Feature and Datum features will be reported as all R or all Ø. I would like to be able to report both R and Ø as needed in any True Position FCF.
