We are currently programming very large parts with several dimensions. We have an Absolute Romer Arm using PC-Dmis 2015. Using a different software for the few days I worked at my current job (3 years ago), it would light up on the CAD the next section to be checked. We have several planes, lines, points, etc. on the parts and would like to be able to do something similar. Is there any way to create a program using the CAD that would easily show the section we are to check next? For example, our inspector creates a program for a part. I want to run the program at a later point, but I have no idea what exactly plane #46 is or where line# 37 is supposed to be checking. I'd like to be able to see some sort of visual clue on the CAD that helps direct me to where to create this plane, line etc. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.
We keep all that stuff in our mind and don't tell anyone, it's what keeps us around. Joking.
You could try picking your manual hits from the CAD in "teach mode" that will show the probe next to the feature to be measured in the graphics screen as you collect them then if that's not enough create "views", also, you can take screen shots and recall them up in operator comments with a small message.... it's pretty standard stuff, anyone should retake basic training all over again if you aren't implementing that for your operators.
It's not a "canned" as the aforementioned software BUT it does have that capability deep in there. Oh and I should mention I'm not an expert at the portable stuff but I thought I might give er' a shot anyway. Only about 2 years experience 2 years ago... hehe.
