Feature With HUGE Tolerance

I am being asked to confirm the orientation of a round clip, similar to a hose clamp. The dimension is an angle, and the tolerance is ±45°. Since the clip can be anywhere in this 90° range, what is the best way for the CMM to 'find' it? (without taking manual hits on it of course). The polar radius of the clip location is about 35 mm if that helps.

  • I've played with this for a few minutes and I tell you, I don't understand it, or how I'd use it if I did. I think I'll put a manual command to place the probe near the center of the clip and do a read point. That should get me close.

    I agree, highpoint can be a bear to figure out.
    Once you DO figure it out though, it can be valuable in a lot of different circumstances.
