The shortest way to the center(scan)

When scanned in the shape shown in the figure

I want to know how to find the shortest distance between each point relative to the center.

There will be more than 140 such bends, so the we should be able to find them automatically.




For reference, the program version : PCDMIS 2019 R2 CAD++

  • We have a similar task where I work.

    We need to evaluate the roundness from the highest points of an outside knurl. This knurl luckily always has the same amount of "teeth".
    We scan this outside knurl and then use a script to find all the highest points.
    We then create a least square circle from the highest points and evaluate this circle.

    The script was created by Hexagon (I don't know how it works).
    In it's current state only works on an outside geometry but you could adjust it to your needs.

    Explanation how you need to have your routine setup for the script to work:
