Auto Reverse Start and End Angles on Circles and Cylinders

Robert Radley 3 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated 3 years ago 1

In Pic11 I have selected a radius to be measured. The initial direction is CCW. Angle start is 243.592 End is 405. 


If i want it to measure CW I click the Direction: Drop down and Select CW. Pic 2 shows result. Now notice that the measurement is incorrect because the Start and End angle are the same as the CCW measurement. What we want to happen is the Start and end angles reverse themselves automatically to get the correct measurement of the feature in the CW direction. 


PIC3 shows this reversal of Start and End angles. Now the feature is being correctly measured in the CW direction.


Currently a programmer has to manually reverse the Start and end angle when reversing direction. This is time consuming and also the angles can be long with many decimal places. 


Simple Solution:  When the opposite direction is chosen in the Direction Drop down PC DMIS software automatically reverses the Star and End angles.


Enhances programming productivity by eliminating a manual operation into one automatically performed by the software. 

Thank You

Add Vision Parameters to MSE

Chris Bittle 5 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 1

I would like to use MSE with Vision features.  This would significantly decrease the time to create measurement routines.

Compare programs

V Maglov 6 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 8

Make it possible to open two programs side by side and have an automated feature to highlight the differences between the two i.e. if you open the Product_v1.2 program and Product_v1.4 program side by side in the same window/on same screen/ the software to be able to show the differences between the two programs by highlighting the background on the sections where they differ.

Alternatively you should be able to copy/paste and visually compare between the two programs.

Include CurveAnalyzer into PC-DMIS!

Jörgen Andersson (vpt se) 6 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by shuzhao pang 2 weeks ago 1

Holy hexagon, Batman!


Has the PC-DMIS marketing/sales department completely missed this application?


I would LOVE to have the functionality of CurveAnalyzer in PC-DMIS, adding tracer/contour functions to my scans and being able to measure within/on the scans...


...and why is it not being marketed harder? If it works as expected (and as how I think it works) it is a given inclusion in the CAD++ package.

report should print as text pdf (not image) so it can be copied and pasted to other applications

Kevin Watters 8 years ago in Metrology Software / PC-DMIS updated by neil kay 5 years ago 4

When you print a report as a pdf it should be rendered as text, not an image so that you can copy and past from it to other applications.
