Extracting points from a portion of a scan

anp1994 7 months ago

Hello fellow PC-DMIS Gurus! I created a linear closed scan on an irregular shape to dimension the height and width on it. I need to also measure a radius on the top portion of a scan which is giving me trouble right now. Can you point me in the right direction of how to do this?

Thank you in advance!

Have you looked at constructing a circle from a scan segment: https://docs.hexagonmi.com/pcdmis/2023.1/en/helpcenter/mergedProjects/core/16_const_topics/Constructing_an_Arc_from_Part_of_a_Scan.htm

I used the Circle segment construction, and it worked great for me. Thank you for the help.

Hey Neil, is the constructing a circle from scan tool dependent on the current workplane view? Meaning if I am in ZPlus and try to construct a circle from a scan segment oriented closer to Yminus it won't work correctly? It seems like a straight forward tool but I am not having luck pulling a leading edge radius from a section scan.

It's workplane dependent, like all other 2D circle constructions.
