clearance cube made available as an option for PCDMIS PRO licenses

Guillermo 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 1

This came as part of an email conversation from aftermarket.  Some users will purchase PCDMIS CAD Offline licenses to support PCDMIS PRO CMM (DCC) licenses in production.  If a PCDMIS CAD offline user creates a program using Clearance Cube, he/she unknowingly has a program that will not performed (motion) as designed because the PCDMIS PRO licenses do not implement Clearance Cube.  My suggestion is that Clearance Cube should be available to Non-CAD licenses.  A user should be able to define and use Clearance Cube pretty much like a Clearance Plane, or any other move command.

I would even suggest that for a PRO user, he/she could define the diagonal clearance cube corners using the probe when writing a program on a CMM.  I believe Competitors (The Z boys) can do Clearance Cube w/o CAD.

Show probe ball button

Gábor Tóth 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 0

Hi,


The the show probe button in graphic Item toolbar was a very useful buton. So thanks for developers! And I suggest more button: Show only the probe ball button.

Many times I want to check visual the gap between the ball and the part and so many times the shaft of the last item(probe) hide all things what I want to see...

elements on a flat not visual

Marcel Raiser 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 0

I have many big parts with many elements to check.

The biggest problem, what I have, is when I set the elements on a flat (when this are shading)  I can´t see this from all positions.


Can you make the flat transparent or the elements just like to shape, that we can see all elements on a flat in al positions?

I'd like the ability to calculate the area between 2 somewhat concentric circles, or even irregular shaped features and dimension that area.

XACT PROFILE

christopher d'andrea 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 0

With legacy dimensioning, in the profile dimension box you could highlight all the features you wanted and when you hit create it would create an individual dimension for each feature. With XACT dimensioning it produces a feature set and one dimension shows on the report. Can you make it to where you could have the option of grouping the features into a feature set or have the option to mass create individual dimensions for each feature instead of having to choose each feature one at a time and hitting create?

Animated probe changer

damonh 7 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 0

since the animated machines are included with the pcdmis software, shouldnt the animated probe changer be included as well? Apparently this is a paid addon currently, but would be handy for offline path movement and collision detection.
