Hexagon Measurement SystemsNo matter what Hexagon measurement equipment or software you use, we want to hear your ideas and suggestions on how we can improve.
Thanks for your assistance in helping us shape the future. |

turn off hits on all in edit window
To my understanding, if you want to "clean up" your edit window, you have to turn off "parameters" and "show hits" individually on every feature.
Can there be an option (Probably under the View menu) to toggle parameters and show-hits ON or OFF for all features?

Dimension the width between circles
Add the ability in the distance dimensioning to be able to report the width of an O ring groove between two circles.

Multiple tube diameter steps
We do a lot of multiple diameter tubes that start with a smaller diameter and step up multiple times. I am currently working on one that has 4 different diameters for each bend. These tubes are usually constructed of single bends and it would be great to be able to measure the tube against the CAD to make sure we had the rotations correct.

Add physical tube properties, or tags, (wallthickness i.e.) which you can you use to search projects
Besides project names it would be nice to search on other terms. Like wallthickness etc

Add new type of alignement RPS
From Anoflex Contitech France (and French CO - Laurent Francou):
Add a RPS alignment, using geometric features, all keeping the Tube coordinates.
today, geometric alignements without CAD cannot keep the tube coordinates according to drawings.

Auto Surface Feature
I know I am way out there this time but please hear me out. Please add a surface type auto feature. No matter the surface I want to be able to create an adaptive scan similar to an auto plane adaptive scan feature, such as perimeter, free form, or teach path. For example, (bad example but here it is) I don't necessarily want to create a cylinder on a radius surface I want to create an auto surface feature but I don't want it to be constrained to the cylinder parameters I want it to be able to be treated the same as I would create a plane adaptive scan. Another example would be irregular surface geometry. The reasoning is I want to be able to go through a part and create auto features instead of generic scan features to report the profile of each surface. I think it could be a valuable tool. Thank you!

Pull data from auto feture sample hits
Have the ability to pull data from sample hit for constructed features.

CAD model Export
I have a program with a CAD model in it, but I do not have a model in any other CAD format (stp, igs, prt...) only .cad from PC-DMIS. I need a function to export CAD model from PC-DMIS to other formats like stp and igs.
Situation is: I have only a PC-DMIS program and I need a model because we can not find that model anywhere.

Separate Clearance Cubes = More efficient probe travel times.
When I import my 1-2-3 blocks for fixturing or whatever I bring in, I would like each of them to be able to have their own clearance cube instead of having to have a large cube encompassing the whole set up. Sometimes with larger fixtures it would definitely speed things up if the probe didn't think it had to move so far away from my part just because the constraints of the CC are limited to the overall size of my imported fixturing. And why stop there, also make it where if I don't have a fixture model I can manually set up a cube just for that single fixture piece as well.
