I have a part with 2 face call out. i finish programing one face but now need to flip the part and program the other side. my question is how can i flip the part on pcdmis and change my Z with out anything moving. each time i try to flip or rotate my z and everything i program moves. i don't want to create two different programs because on the second face, holes call for tp and the datums are located in the first face. i cant set this part on a fixture where i can have asses to all faces in one program on the cmm.
If it will allow me, where I can square the part in the same height as the first setup, I'll take my second model and align it the first model at 180° and go straight into a DCC alignment. and hide my first model while doing second side programming.
Matthew could you explain to me what you mean by "on Edge". I did try to figure out away with a fixture and tried to get creative but I ran out of ideas and this part is way to heavy to be moving around a lot
We use the rayco quick fixturing so I do use 2 manual alignments. I will only the manuals on the 1st part after I build the inspection plate and then after that Its unmarked and it will go straight to DCC so theres not alot of manual work.
