Anyone use Discus and PC-DMIS?

drewk1
Just trying Discus http://www.discussoftware.com/ to see if it will speed up our FAI process.

Just wondering if anyone is using it in anger and has any tips etc.

One thing I would like to know is how to generate pcdmis reports in .txt format.

I'm sure I know but am having a blonde moment and all is blank.

  • Yes, we balloon drawings at the front end of the process as well - I agree with your assessment of the benefits.

    You didn't mention anything about the automated import of results. We are finding this to be the biggest time saver in the process. Discus does a check of nominals / tolerances between CMM program and TDP as part of the import process and flags any mismatches. For instance, the diameter tolerance error would have been flagged during the import (unless the same error existed in the characteristic).
