T-values

t-values are always + for extra material and - for less material?

  • T value works also witout cad !
    It's the projection of the measured point along the theo vector from the theo point.
    ASSIGN/T_VAL=DOT(PT1.XYZ-PT1.TXYZ,PT1.IJK)
    You can also calculate the T values on a scan (if you know the theo !)
    ASSIGN/T_VAL=DOT(SCN1.HIT[1..SCN1.NUMHITS].XYZ-SCN1.HIT[1..SCN1.NUMHITS].TXYZ,SCN1.HIT[1..SCN1.NUMHITS].TIJK)

    T+ is + material, T- is -material, so, as you said, a scan in a hole with T_values <0 is larger than the theo diam.
