I had a couple questions currently my employer uses another software for laser scanning with a LLP but I am trying to explain to them since we use PCDMIS for the CMM we should also use it for the arm it would make everything more uniform measuring the same parts as far as reporting, alignments etc.. They seem to be hung up on the pretty color maps and 3d deviation points of polyworks or geomagic, i was wondering if any of you on here could enlighten me of some good looking reports with color maps, annotation points etc from a portable arm I can use as ammunition to get them to come around, i would really appreciate it even if its on the the hexagon block just something since i dont have the license for a portable arm to be able to show this.
Hoedeman, i appreciate it honestly didn't know you could do that on portable never used a portable with pcdmis before. Thanks for the insight as well as kirbster if he didn't get my message.
I use the scan from the faro arm. I aligned that scan with my CAD in PC-DMIS.
I put the code on how I did it. From there you can do all that you want to do. It is just a scan to dimension with, not an inspection program.
