Scanning - Reporting Basics

bfire85
What do you all do?

We have a print where all the basics are numbered per engineering. The thought is to report out all the basic dimensions along with the profile measurement. What do you do if you have a profile callout of irregular shape with many basic callouts? I am currently using linear open/closed scans.

PC-DMIS 2021.2

Just curious what other programmers/companies currently do.

  • It isn't common we get asked to evaluate the basic directly. If it were myself, I would choose the beginning diameter/linear and then the end diameter/linear. Everything in between is reliant on the tool path, so those would be the most important influencers on the profile outcome. But it would help to be consistent in your reporting style, by that I mean either report both linear evaluations or both diametrical evaluations, don't mix and match as it will take longer to determine a correction.
    If I only have 1 set of basics, linear/diameter and an angle, I would then choose to report the diameter size and the measured angle of the surface.

    Keep the reference reporting as light as possible to prevent over complicating the analysis.
