Tienen la capacidad de construir elementos (círculos, conos, esferas, cilindros, etc.) con diferentes segmentos angulares (0º a 45º, 90º a 135º, etc.) dentro del mismo elemento.

When customers want to reverse a Tube Jig, they may face Jigs with cylindrical gates (no problem here, a simple measurement of a cilynder), but also Square gates.

For square gaes, the process is much eavier cause it requires to measure 4 (or 3) planes, construct 2 medium planes, and then make the intersection of both medium planes. In case of more than 6 axes, it becomes very heavy, boring and results in a very long program.

In GPad, we implemented a macro for such case :

- The user selects "Jig line from square gate"

- then the SW automatically asks the user ot measure 1st side plane

- then oppposite side plane

- then bottom plane

- and finally top plane

- then all the calculations are automatically done, and the user directly gets the center line.

Sometimes, only 3 planes are used (both sides and bottom plane) : then we use the side planes to calculate the "diameter" and we translate the bottom plane with half of the "diameter". then we intersect the translated bottom plane with the medium plane from side planes.

Another option to get a quick measurement (but less accurate) from 3 planes simply consist to measure 3 points: 

- 2 points on one bottom edge

- 1 point on the opposite bottom edge

- From Pt 1 and 2, we make a line (from the centre the the sphere of the stylus)

- From this line and Pt 3, we calculate an intermediate "diameter" (not hte real one but the real one minus the probe diameter) and we calculate also the medium point (medium point between Pt3 and its projection onto the line

- we move the line onto the mdeium point

- we move up the line with half of the intermediate "diameter", and perpendicularly to the plane made with the 3 points.

- this gives us the axis.

Hi,

The error above shows when opening a program through inspect. When "close" is clicked Inspect crashes. 

If the error is ignored the program will run. When the program finishes a second instance of the error appears.

Thanks,

Cian

Add ISO286 tolerance choice possibilities (h5, JS6 etc) to new size window, like old location.

Actual we have a minor bug in 2017 R2 SP5 If we choice outer diameter 8 h5 in location first the minus tolerance appear positive. If we push create after the good negative appear in edit window and reopen the dialog we show negative too. But firstly show positive :-(.

Is new size type
analysis we need to type the tolerance manually. In these place would
be great if we can to input ISO 286 tolerance too...

The Re-measure is difficult to use if you are 15 feet or more from the monitor using wireless mouse and Keyboard. Therefore, say if you have 160, parts to measure you will have to select the Re-measure first before selecting the done button to measure another part. Now if the Re-measure was lock on all would you need to execute the program again is to hit Enter on the keyboard or Right Mouse click to select the done button. There should be settings to lock the Re-measure on and then add a comment to ask if you want to continue to execute the program again as INSPECT 2.5 does. When the Re-measure is set back to default off then the added comment will be hidden or defaulted to yes.

From Anoflex Contitech France (and French CO - Laurent Francou):

Add the possibility to projected angles (on X, Y, Z planes or on a specific plane)

[scenario] Create a measurement routine with adaptive scanning measurement strategies. Open that routine on a cmm without an analog scanning probe, that gives an error message.

What would be handy for shops with multiple cmm types, is to have a way to change (temporarily) the measurement strategy to a type the cmm supports based on its probing type, based on the defaults stored in the measurement strategy editor.

Most of the time, I use adaptive scanning to improve throughput on the cmm's. But there are still cmm's with only TTP modules on them. I use the same measurement routine on several cmm's, but the adaptive scanning makes this difficult since the ttp does not support it.  Each cmm type has its own identifier so that the reporting gives the type of cmm used to verify the product. Thus there is traceability to the type of measurement strategies used to verify product.

Hi guys so i updated pc DMis 2017 R1 SP 2 for SP 7 and after the update when i measure the true Position in Simple mode the true position allways stay on RED with *OUTTOUL* expression, even in repport the true position is in tolerance.

Anyone Knows why

Thans in advance
