Vision Auto Circle - Start/End position enhancment

Kyle Brummans 4 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 0

Currently, if i'm running percentage based vision circles, I have to guess and check between settings to align gears to teeth while maintaining all of the appropriate settings.

Allow the start and end positions to increment simultaneously by a degree while maintaining settings.

Vision Circles - Percentage improvement

Kyle Brummans 4 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 0

Currently vision segments are restricted to manual segmenting or a generic 10% percent based increment.

Problem - Gear circles often have in excess of 20 teeth and percentages do not line up with arc length of given teeth.

Solution allow percentages in increments of 1%

Variable focus - Vision / Focus Plane

Kyle Brummans 4 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 1

It would be nice to support a quick focus where I can set an intial amount of pre-focus at a lower mag then fine-tune the focus in high-mag - in one feature.  Similar to re-measure of a circle.

It would also be nice to have a quick focus feature incorporated into an auto plane where either the first point, three points, or all points have that ability.  Rather than multiple alignments, several times.

Add a key in the quick Measurement Strategy Widget where you can difine samble hits .

Spring 4 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 1

Add a key in the quick Measurement Strategy Widget where you can difine samble hits ,for now it can't change the sample hits in PC-DMIS R2 with just 0 spacer. Or allow the programer change the hits position manually with the intuitive path line displayed.

Distance evaluation

Gábor Tóth 4 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 2

Hi,

Maybe a bug or removed from program, but earlier it was worked.

It was a good trick, if we did'nt want to change the workplane to evaluation a point to point distance related to third element. Since 2019R2 is not worked.

Image 354

Now If the third element Cylinder,Cone or 3D line(axis) it is not working:

Image 355

If the third element plane working:

Image 356

Could we kindly ask to repair this evaluation (ASAP because some of program use this method)

Thanks in advance!

Real Vector direction, including T, I,J,K of an intersection point should be calculated correctly

THAO HUYNH 4 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 1

Up to version 2019, there is no actually vector direction of intersection point. T, I, J,K should be calculated so the point can be more useful when doing comparison. for now T, I, J, K are set at default value.
