Internal Auto Cone

I am trying to measure an internal cone, 225mm diameter at the top surface of the part and 246.86 mm at the bottom surface of the part, meaning it gets larger as it descends through the part. I am using auto cone and picking the feature from the CAD model. I haven't used this function before and I'm struggling. I got everything to work except the Auto Wrist function. It seems that it selects a wrist position for the first hit but then does not rotate the wrist as required to make the rest of the hits around the diameter of the part. Am I missing something or is this a limitation of the software?

  • Are you trying to change the to another probe angle while probing the autocone? I don't think you can change probe angles with any autofeature. I think the auto wrist is to select the correct probe angle to probe the entire auto feature. So instead of you having to select the tip angle, it will do it for you.
