Scanning a curved surface feature

Kaori21
Hi,

I am still relatively new to this. I am currently wanting to inspect an injection mould with a curved surface. what sort of techniques should be used? Would taking multiple points along the split line of the mould suffice? Or would scanning be a better option? If so, what sort of technique would be best to approach this? The CAD model that I recieved was created with different splines and planes and so I cannot inspect the split line as one while body


I am fairly new to this, but would like to learn more.

Thank you very much

  • I think scanning would be best, but I don't know how to do that so I will tell you the method I use.

    Put a whole bunch of individual points on the area that needs to be measured. Then put all of the points you have taken into a construction feature set. Make sure you’re using correct alignment and workplace or it can get screwy. Then you can use that for a surface profile (or whatever you are measuring for) and relate it to the datums.

    Or a simpler way (not as clean) is just relate all the points you have taken to the datums.
