Entering into the world of Multi-sensor


Hi,

I'm Completely new to the Multi-sensor but not to PC-Dmis, Currently i'm trying to teach myself. Right now i got stuck at Setting focus for offline program using cad model.

How to set focus & Lighting for vision probe while doing offline program? Is there any option available for that ? Any guidance would be much appreciated.

    IF Illumination parameters you program OFFline? Forget it when you run it ONline. As Barry mentions? Parameters (nicely) are GLITCHY.
    If you run a Optiv Performance 443? Ouch.
    A 20 year Hex Tech (Roger R.I.P.) got severely frustrated when our yearly 'Calibration' was getting done. TWENTY YEARS!. It was purchased...it was a demo machine.... maybe that was the issue? Rolling eyes
    My personal opinion is that PC-DMIS Vision tries to do a lot of great things. BUT.....
    The Optiv machines were from the Black Forest in Germany, (old Mycrona?) and Hexagon fed the machine software which was created with snippets of code from around the world. Everything didn't go together very smoothly.
    To be honest? The machine I had (a 2015 build) worked pretty damn good at times? But (especially during 2D profiles and auto focus for surface points) the machine would get confused and go on a coffee break for seconds.... up to minutes... before moving on to the next feature.
    The performance IF it worked in EVERY program? Pretty good. But sadly the performance was hit and miss.
    My 2¢.
