Hi All,
I just finished with the 101/102 training at Hexagon MI location and am fairly new to CMM work. I have the Absolute arm 8325-7 and am currently using PC DIMIS 2020R1. I free scanned my part(both A side and B side) because fixture is currently unavailable. I created a third cop after combing cop 1(a side) and cop 2(b side) then I aligned final cop to cad. Before aligning the two, I picked my points for measurement(auto feature) on surface profile along with the circles that needed measurements. When I align Cad(reference) to cop, parts align but auto features that were selected remain on the other side of the screen? how do I move the points to the now aligned cop to cad? when I double click on the points in the edit window it shows' up on the cad model? I am fairly new with this so please bare with me. Any help with me appreciated.
Would one suggest I take the print dimensions on cad then align to part to cop then extract or align cad to cop then take points from part print then extract? the only reason I ask this is just incase I get my cad model ahead of time and I set up my program before receiving my plastic molded parts after and running the program. If the first question can be answered then I can then start using cad model to pick dimensions from print before parts are ready.
