  • Editing Features/Constructed Features Inside Loop Array?

    Hello All, Fairly new to loops in PCdmis and hoping someone can shed some light on this. I have a simple loop setup to go through 2 parts. I found (through some extensive searching) that I can change which part is being dimensioned by adding a…

  • need help loop and reports part in report per loop

    i created this loop program to run either 1 or 6 parts depending on how many they load into the machine in fixture they input 1 thru 6 in an operator input then i use that to see how many loops i need to run. i am having trouble with the report and trying…

  • Find max, min dia for 'N' numbers of holes

    we are using following code to find max and min dia among 93 holes inspected can someone suggest any alternate way? ASSIGN/COUNT=0 ASSIGN/NUM_OF_DIM=93 ASSIGN/MMPROF1=0 ASSIGN/MMPROF2=0 ASSIGN/MAX_DIM=0 ASSIGN/MIN_DIM=0 ASSIGN/MAX_PROF=0 ASSIGN…

    is there any code we can use to calculate this from set true position values? for a circular disk with 60 slots at od. SPACING ERROR NOT TO EXCEED 0.005 TOTAL. SPACING ERROR BETWEEN ADJACENT SLOT 0.003 MAX AT 60 PLACES. 1 PLACE MAY BE 0.005 MAX…

  • Reporting in Loops and Patterns

    Hello all, I'm back. The organization I'm at currently likes to run multiple parts in programs using "Paste with Pattern". I'm writing a program that measures 4 parts, and I would like it to print 4 clean reports. If I use 4 "PRINT/REPORT" commands…

  • Is ANYONE using new Inspect-4.1 Software?/ Looping Issue

    Every time I search these forums for any information regarding this new software I am met with no information as it seems no one is using this software. Is it irrelevant for experienced CMM Programmers/Users or is it just a problematic software (like…

  • Measuring Thickness at Specific Points Using Scan Data

    Hi Guys, We make a lot of relatively thin, flat parts, many of which are in a high-nickel ferrous alloy (so they're a pain to machine well) and many of which have tight tolerances on the thickness and/or flatness of the large sides. Because the parts…

  • Programming for a R&R (programmig reccommendations needed)

    Hello folks, I am being tasked with a task for an R&R on our CMM, and though it seems simple enough, I realize there are several ways that are possible to structure the tests. I wanted to get some input about methods and see if it makes for a better…

  • circle constr from points in loop doesn't change dimension when measured with label

    I have gauge with 2 different diameters inside – bowtie shape. Smaller dia I measure with no problems, for larger I created 2 loops, 12 points each. I even managed to construct circle and measure it (you guys helped me a few weeks ago to do this). Because…

  • construct circle from points in loop

    Good Morning All I have punch with gear inside (35 teeth to make math easier) and I need to measure larger diameter.I made loop which takes points between teeth but i have no idea how to construct circle. CMM takes points, I can see them on CAD model…

  • Header not repeating in looped program

    Hi all! I've got a program that loops to measure four parts on one run. The program loops properly and gives me four separate reports except after the first run our company header is not carried on past the first report. What am i missing? I know I am…

  • Looping With A Twist

    My boss unilaterally designed this fixture … for 13 pc sample. Parts are aprox 4.3X4.3 inch. My plan – start by selecting 1 or 6 parts. Read point on first part. Start loop with offsets and 180° rotation. At end of loop X and Y offsets are updated in…

  • Looping and keeping the numbers

    I have a fixture that holds 10 parts. Let's say I have to run 50. How do I have the report continue with the eleventh part? Meaning once all 10 have run. It starts back at one in the report. I am new to the logic part of the software....obviously

  • Incrementing serial numbers

    Hello all, I was wondering how I might be able to increment the "serial numbers" in the reports of each instances of the program instead of incrementing the "part name?" It currently outputs the part name (program title). Where do I need to go to…

  • I have a looping question

    Where to start…. I have been programming for about a year. I am not too much of a noob but I do not have any one to really turn too and ask for help (besides you guys and gals). So I have been playing around with my cmm, making a program then making a…

  • Help guys!!!! 30pc study and runtime slowdown

    Ok here is my question, I have been given the task of running a 30pc study on a rear window of a car. Just explain our plant is an Auto glass supplier for North America. So these rear windows are put on a fixture that checks for curve and bend comparison…

  • learning looping.... I Want to just repeat program in the program?

    So I have 100 small squares with 4 holes on the corners, I am set up to run 3 then the program ends. I want to just replace the parts while the machine measures the last one, is this looping or a subroutine? I will be getting 500 more tommorrow…

  • Looping Parts on a Grid

    Hi guys this is my first post so i apologize if this has been posted before. I have parts that are arranged on a 4x3 grid or a 5x5 grid(the parts are the same, the matrix is different), and I would like to loop the program to measure the whole gride…

  • How to loop a part and have the probe measure both parts before rotating probe head?

    we are using pcdmis 2011 mr1. We have a part the requires 3 rotations and a manual probe head. problem we are having is that looping the part is usless because we would have to constantly rotate between parts. how do we make it so that it will measure…
