Alignment strategy

Hello All
I received one part to measure in CMM with PCDMIS platform, and I am bit confused to alignment strategy on this.
Attached drawing snap for your understanding

Here Datum A is bottom face, Datum B represented to 4 holes.
In program I followed by below steps

The part is in XY plane
  • Measure datum A
  • Measure 4 holes
  • Connect holes 1 & 4 with Line 1
  • Connect holes 2 & 3 with Line 2
  • Intersect Line 1 & 2 and get a IntPoint
  • Construct MidPoint between holes 2 & 4
Alignment:
  • Datum A - Spatial alignment in Z
  • MidPoint - Planar alignment in X
  • IntPnt - Origin XY

My concern,
  • Is my alignment strategy is correct? please suggest
  • How we can apply MMC to B datum?

I need help on this please

Thanks

  • You need to use XactmMeasure dimensioning. Measure datum A as a plane and define it as datum A. Then measure the four datum B holes as cylinders, construct a feature set from them and define the set as datum B. Dimension the four holes in one XactMeasure position command. Measure datum C as a cylinder. Dimension datum C to datums A & B. Example code below...
