MEASUREMENT of an ARC LENGTH ?

We just recieved some "UPDATED" print from a customer that they decied that they need to measure/control the ARC LENGTHS rather than the RAD. itself for assembly pourposes. Is measuring / reporting an ARC LEGNTH even possible ? Has anyone here ever done it ? I dont have any idea where to even start ?

  • Well, here's the jist:



    The problem with this approach is that the arc length is calculated from the diameter measurement, so it essentially the same as measuring a diameter or radius.


    I know that it is possible to construct a curve from a scan in pcdmis and dimension the length of the curve using location L axis, but I've never used it.
