I’m a postgraduate student running a project on CMM inspection planning.
I’ve structured a short questionnaire for the project and I’d really appreciate it, if you would participate in this.
I'd really appreciate it, if you could forward it to any engineers with CMM experience, you might have in your personnel.
Your thread title phraseology is cool, but here's a dose of reality: Engineers and CMM programmers can be like oil and water.
Your university should have scheduled you more field trips to the real world. (read: CMM area)
It's a good learn to see what reality is like down in the trenches, without all the podium-speak.
Then, you could make up your own mind as to which way the wind blows.
good luck
I was going to have a go at it as I'm just sat running parts, but there's no Dat G on the print (I know it shows it on the sketch but I'm not going off that, calling especially when you have Face B is Dat G and such nonsense).
Sounds like an engineer in the making. He'll be spitting out prints, shooting them down to the shop floor and baffling the heII out of machinists and inspectors in no time.
That was hilarious. So
dalon, are you planning on producing some kind of procedural process for FORCING someone to do what they were hired to do, the best way possible?
Let's say you are an office cleaning expert. If a company hired you, just to mop their floors, then gave you a schematic on how to mop every floor of every room, which involved using a toothbrush and a 16 ounce solo cup, or a huge mop that weighs about 50 lbs when wet... Then they handed you a ridiculously detailed map, plotting out a path which induces 40% extra walking, 60% more bending and of course just these two tools for the job (one is inadequate and the other is seriously labor intensive/overkill)...
How would you feel?
Would you just follow the instructions?
What if furniture moved, and the maps are no longer accurate to the layout. Are you responsible for updating the map, or are they?
dalon is running a project but yet he doesn't check or reply to any of the posts or comments in 16 days, sounds like some of the engineers/ project managers I have worked with!!
