EXCEL FILES WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY SAVED AT THE SAME LOCATION WITH PDF FILES

THAO HUYNH 5 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated 4 years ago 2

every time to save pdf file, an associated excel file will be saved at the exactly same location with exactly the same name as pdf file. right now, it doesn't happen this way and take so much time to save excel files because it not follow the same location as pdf and the name is the different. by having the same name and location as pdf file when saving, it helps a lot for running with a lot of parts or even one part.

Generic circle Radius/ Diameter default

Kingsld1 5 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 0

Change the generic circle default of reporting radius to report diameter

I want this to be the default

F37 =GENERIC/CIRCLE,DEPENDENT,CARTESIAN,IN,$
NOM/XYZ,<PNT301.TX,PNT301.TY,PNT301.TZ>,$
MEAS/XYZ,<PNT301.X,PNT301.Y,PNT301.Z>,$
NOM/IJK,<0,0,1>,$
MEAS/IJK,<0,0,1>,$
DIAMETER/11.4,D80.M.MEAS

instead of this...

F37 =GENERIC/CIRCLE,DEPENDENT,CARTESIAN,IN,$
NOM/XYZ,<PNT301.TX,PNT301.TY,PNT301.TZ>,$
MEAS/XYZ,<PNT301.X,PNT301.Y,PNT301.Z>,$
NOM/IJK,<0,0,1>,$
MEAS/IJK,<0,0,1>,$
RADIUS/11.4,D80.M.MEA

I'd even be happy if I could push a function button in the edit windo to flip it.

I cannot every remember creating a generic radius.

AB angles in probe readout window and status bar

frank herr 5 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 0

For continues wrists we show the AB angles in the probe readout window and status bar. It will be helpful also for indexed rotary heads to see the angles. Some heads have the capability that the operator can rotate them with a joystick and they like to see the angle.

Copy and paste Hit/Basic from one Auto Feature to another

Jamal Hagan 5 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 0

I would like to be able to Copy and paste hit basics from one auto feature to another auto feature.  I was measuring a circle that has nine 20degree segments that needed measured.  When I used Void detection and had the angle from 0-360, it didn't work.  It would put some points on the surfaces but would skip most of the surfaces.  So I tried to copy and paste hit basics from the segments into a feature and it would not work.  I get an error "Highlighted object(s) may not be copied!"  And if you try to paste from Notepad you get a "Line too long error."

Probe Utilities dialog window ability to change the size of the dialog window

davehocum 5 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 0

Add the ability to change the size of the Probe Utilities dialog window.

This will allow the user to see the complete view of the Active Tip List descriptions without using the horizontal scroll bar.

Tip List Description
1. TIP ID#
2. Tip Rotation
3. Tip Type
4. X,Y,Z Location
5. I,J,K Direction
6. Diameter and Thickness
7. Date and Time
* (asterisk) - Noncalibrated Tip

Extract T-Value From Vision Auto Features' point data (Profile, Circle, Line), rather than remeasuring points.

Kyle Brummans 5 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 2

Currently, it is not possible (to my knowledge) to extract point data from a feature that has been scanned via vision.  The point must be re-measured as a point, rather than comparing to CAD for a T-Value

Add Ability to Enter Tolerance Class fit on a Hole Diameters When Reporting True Position Using XactMeasure

david carter 5 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 0

A lot of drawings now state a tolerance class on hole diameters, we can populate the +/- tolerance using the location dimension command but not when reporting a hole for True Position. It makes sense to populate the tolerance from the  XactMeasure dialog.

Importation en masse des fichiers .TSP

Fabien 5 years ago in Metrology Software / TubeShaper updated by neil kay 4 years ago 0

Il faudrait pouvoir importer en masse des fichiers .TSP

Lors de modification des paramètres et pour qu'ils s'appliquent à tout les fichiers existant, nous les copions et les réimportons ( + de 10000 fichiers).

L'importation en masse sur des fichiers .gtt est pourtant réalisable.


Cordialement

multiple constructions using same input features

Bill Kulpa 5 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 1

Our engineers always want 3 circle algorithms, Least Squares, Max Inscribed, Min Circumscribed. I'd like to be able to choose all 3 of these at one time, using the same set of input scans. Maybe change the selection option from a drop down list to radio buttons enabling multiple circle creations in on step.

Promt operator BEFORE changing tip angles within program

Alan_C 5 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 4 years ago 5

I program offline for different machines and all of the machines do not have the same probe head, so the tip rotation angles are not the same. When an operotor mistakenly opens a program on the machine that is equiped with the PROBEPH10M probe head instead of the HH-AS8-T2.5, PC-DMIS automatically switches the tip angles that are available while using the PH10M. This is a problem because even if they don't run the program, simply closing the program will save the new tip angles. File, Quit will not save it but sometimes it doesn't go down like that.
