I work in a facility where we make transmission insulators for power lines. We have to measure what they call leakage per customer drawing. We recently purchased a CMM machine and now EVERYONE wants EVERYTHING checked on it. Of course it's a new toy I get it. But I am trying to perform a scan without the model to measure leakage, but I am drawing a blank on how to measure them length of the actual scan that has traveled over the surface of the part. I tried it with free form scan, as well as linear open. Attached is a photo of the part thanks in advance for the help!
I executed the scan and tried to insert the code. Unfortunately my day is coming to a close. I will begin working on it again first thing in the morning. I will post the code in the morning and attach screen shots of my screen showing the settings in my tabs. Thank you for your help! By the way how did you learn those codes? I am just now cutting my teeth on PC-DMIS are there courses I can take to learn them?
