I time to time measure pipes with a portable arm. So far it has been pretty easy to do it but now i'm facing som pipes with many angles and different views for evaluation.
I usually use program mode but have also started using auto element. The problem is the alignment. I have tried several ways to do it but it just goes crazy. Even if i get origo for XYZ the way i want it the rest of the elements seem to be projected crooked and way of the CAD model.
Has anyone experience with measuring pipes? I could really use some good advice here.
Most of my tube inspections were with 1:1 mylar. Have you done a forum search? I'm pretty sure there are a bunch of topics on inspecting tubes already.
