Take the part you need to check and all the gages that you currently use , place them in a clean and calibrated box then dump them on the table of the CMM all at one time. Then "read" the pile that you just created like an old shaman sooth sayer would do with the entrails of an animal sacrifice. Document your findings and repeat with the next part.
Seriously, this forum can help you but from the sounds of it I'm not sure if you're ready for any help that we can give.
You have to this in mind, just because the cmm can check it doesn't mean its the best tool to use. You have to factor in program/setup time and others matters. It may be more efficient to check with gauges than it is with the cmm. Think about those things before you waste time writing a program.
Yep.
It's a really cool tool to use, but completely replacing gages and processes requires a
lot of effort and knowledge about the software.
I don't want to be that guy, but you can't explain what "Go/No-Go" gage you're talking about; I would imagine you need more experience before tackling something like this.
It takes 10 seconds to check threads with a hard gage.
How long would it take
you to figure out how to get the correct number of turns via CMM?
