Hello, I'm programming on a new CMM and having issues with my manual alignments. I have been programming in offline mode and whenever I try to run my programs on the machine after I pick up my manual alignment I get this error message: ERROR CE ,S% ,TR_CE…
Is it possible in an offline seat of PC-DIMS, to slow down the execution speed of the virtual CMM? I a line machine you can alter the move speed and the measure speed, and depending on the controller, you would can also slow the machine down with the…
I’m still very new to PC-DMIS and programming in general so I have no idea what the options are for my question:
Can you program offline using the Online Seat of PC-DMIS (Version 2022.1) if there is NO air supplied to the CMM? We only have the Online…
I have an issue that I have been trying to understand for a while now. I write all my pc-dmis programs on an offline seat in Pc Dmis 2017R2. I work off of models made by our engineers. I make up the programs then I back save them to our online Pc-dmis…
Is there any separate manual for Flow control commands, file i/o command, Assignments?
can someone please share it if anyone has it. this will be very helpful.
Need to calculate these from a set of 8 results
[Spacing error not to exceed 0.005, spacing between adjacent slot 0.003, 1 place may be 0.005 max]
I am using following code to calculate spacing error within 0.005, but I'm not sure how to find "…
Occasionally, when I start a new program offline, the simulated probe graphic location will get messed up and be completely offset from the simulated points that it is taking. Graphically, the probe will be be performing its motions out in space many…
I am trying to create a program without model and required to create a plane at an angle (x=0.3334° , y=0.0° & z= 14.538°)
is there any way to calculate i, j, k value for the same?
Hi Everyone!
I am working with a forge part with no datum structure. It is calling for a profile of .120 u .09 to itself. (+.09/-.03).
My though is that the simplest way to approach this is with an iterative alignment (machine to part),…
Hello everyone! I am having trouble trying to figure out how to align and dimension this part. I am programming offline to a supplied CAD model from the customer (I can't upload the file but I took screenshots of what the part looks like). The only dimensions…
Hi everyone !
1.What am i doing wrong? the readpoint wont move or even touch the part when i put the probe where i like to start.
the cad model was provided with the trihedron located where is shown in the picture. i also try putting a point where…
Hello All! I am still green to PC-DMIS and I am trying to define a new disc probe, Renishaw P/N A-5555-0298 4mm disc probe, but I am unsure on how to do so. I read that the probe wizard will do this but I was wondering if there was an easier way to download…
Hello everyone. I am having trouble trying to dimension to the midpoint of this radius callout, rather than the center. In the drawing, shown below, there is the .244 dimension from the centerline of the 45° BSC angle to the midpoint of the radius. I…
Good Morning! I have this part (shown below) that calls out a slot as the tertiary datum and I am having trouble trying to get the true position to show the MMC to .0002 for the callout for -D-. I am measuring it by taking 1 hit on each side of the slot…
Good Morning! I am still very new to PC-DMIS and I am having trouble with the Xact measurement of a true position callout for a feature. The callout for the hole should read TP/ Ø.005 @ MMC/ A @ MMC but when I try to dimension it, it does not allow me…
Hello! I am having trouble trying to dimension to an intersection point created by two constructed best fit lines. The dimensions (.150 and .250) are not measuring at nominal even though it is programmed off the CAD model. I made the constructed lines…
Good morning! I am very green to PC-DMIS and I need help. I have a part that has an ID -A- and ribs on the outside with slots cut into them. The width of the slots must be symmetrical to -A- within .010. I picked 1 point on each side of the slot and measured…
Hi Guys,
We recently purchased a 9-12-8 Global S machine with a scanning head. The length of the indexing portion (scanning head + longer tip) kind of freaked us out, and we wanted to be able to simulate the machine offline in order to catch collisions…
I hope there is a simple solution for this. I tried searching the forum but found nothing related.
Here is my scenario:
The CMM operator runs the part and there are various errors. Some of them look like errors in programming. I take the PRG file…
I am currently running versions 2015, 2017 & now 2018 and I have a unique problem with only one machine running 2017 & 2018 but not 2015.
This machine is running in Offline mode only.
When I try to calibrate a new probe angle I get an 'Out of Memory…
Hello!
Running PC-DMIS 2013 MR1 offline

Basically I have a form that I use for all of my online inspections. I'm programming this part offline, and I want to use the same form.
This form holds…
Hello!
Running PC-DMIS 2013 MR1 with an online license connected to CMM, and a separate offline portlock.
It doesn't work!
I haven't touched this offline license before. I always program online, on-machine. But I recently found out we just had…
Hi All,
I swear I figured this out before, but what I think I did is not working...
I pulled a virgin program from a .zip file. All nominals are programmed offline (technically online connected to machine, but everything including manual features…
We just renewed our SMAs in our shop and upgraded to v2014.1. (For the record, I am liking the new software so far. Big jump from 4.2).
Three of our CMMs had an old 24-pin HASP, which Hexagon replaced for us with the newer USB-type. We also added…
