I am newer to programing and mostly just use the vision part of my machine. But seem to be having some issues with the Tactile side of my machine.
Half way though probe calibration I get this "Measured probe diameter error exceeds limits." It then…
I am rerunning a DCC job on my
Global S 7.10.7 CMM.
The job was originally programmed for an older
1612CHN .
I changed the
movespee d in the PCDMIS program from 80 to 100.
I changed the
acceleration of x,y,z from 50 to 2500.

Hello All,
I'm not sure if this is a common thing but i have an auto calibration program I set up to calibrate all our angles at once with. We have multiple calibration spheres that we use, for example when one is out to be certified by a 3rd party…
The length of the part is outside the measurement range of the equipment.
So, during the software measurement, the parts are moved, the reference axis is moved, and the remaining parts are taken.
I want to find the difference between A1 and A2 when…
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 "…
Need help!! Not sure why PC-DMIS keeps giving me bad results. I have created different alignments, different hits, different workplanes and views but PC-DMIS still gives me wrong numbers. Any suggestions on what is going on?
On the blueprint I have…
Hello,
Attached is a picture of a cable that runs from my cmm to my computer. I am either wanting to get an extension or just replace this cord all together with a much longer one. Problem is, I cant for the life of me figure out what kind it is.…
Is it possible to update
Nominals & Tol . same for some selected features according to my drawing ?
I don't have any
CAD model , and I need to call dimensions for
100 position dimensions.
I'm using
Legacy Mode , for that reason I need…
Hello,
I am relatively new to CMM programing. I was wondering if there was any way to set up a system where when a measurement routine ends, the program automatically saves the routine with the measurement points for that specific serial number to…
I have aligned one part and pln-1 in Y axis origin, after pln measurement when i report flatness of pln-1 with texture on options the meas value of y axis points does not match to the deviation. Could you please explain me the are different from each…
Using " Size dimension " option in PCDMIS 2017 R2.
I had a doubt regarding the Size dimension option in PCDMIS.
While doing ISO dimensions - I found this option which is useful in giving desired output.
But I got strange feeling about how…
So I'm not sure of the format for these things, but I am at my wit's end with this CMM program. When I run the routine, the program moves some features (circles specifically) from their position on the CAD model (which I used to define them using auto…
I need to move my CMM (Optiv C321) to a new location. I kmow it is recommended that I have Hexagon do it because a special pallet is needed. I have one so I want to move it myself and call on Hexagon only to calibrate. Has anybody done if yourself? Can…
Good Morning,
I have 20-30 parts where I have to report out the pitch diameter of the threads for each one. The thread pitch is 9.5583-9.5223, the threads are on the OD, they are clocked and machined in the same position, and its an ACME thread form…
hello,
at my work we just upgraded to pcdmis 2020 r1 and on our previous versions we had the tabs in the graphics display window turned off. ( the ones to switch between cad and laser) we do not have laser capabilities on our cmm and wish to disable…
Hello All,
My company has recently run a program on two CMMs.
The first time the program was run, each loadprobe line would prompt the operator to load that probe before moving forward.
When the program was run on a different CMM, the program…
Good evening everyone!
I’m extremely new to CMMs, GD&T, and pretty much anything to do with this whole world. (>4 months) My employer found themselves in a tight spot when our old CMM Operator/Programmer left for another company. The previous employee…
I'm using a series of Yes/No Questions to dictate what is measured and reported vs what is not. My 1st question is essentially "Are all features being measured": If yes, it skips the following questions. The issue is however that when it skips the following…
The clear planes in my program do not want to co-operate today. I'm using a read point for the manual alignment, as far as I can see I did not forget to translate my Z. DCC_ORG Is a circle that takes 3 sample hits on the Z=0 surface I want. The clearplane…
ALL RIGHT PCDMIS GURUS I NEED SOME HELP! I HAVE A PROGRAM THAT WILL BE USED FOR RECEIVING INSPECTION AS WELL AS PRODUCTION FLOOR. THE NAMING CONVENTIONS FOR WHAT SHOULD APPEAR IN THE HEADER ARE DIFFERENT DEPENDING ON WHERE THE PROGRAM WAS RAN. MY QUESTION…
I'm performing a Find_Noms Scan and while executing it, I got the good ol' error asking me to adjust my tolerance. I mistakenly told it to delete the hits that didnt meet the tolerance: How can I undo this? now whenever I run the feature it will delete…
Edit: reducing the hits to 3 INCREASED the accuracy of my measurements. Special thanks to UKCMM!
So I was measuring a cylinder and I got some pretty crazy results (See the diameter). Trying to figure out why this happened beyond some good ol…
Hello.
I am a new hire and I notice that we have q-das in our Pc-dmis. I have new heard of Q-das and still clueless on how to use it or what is use for. could anyone inform me on this. is there a video somewhere that explains it function ?
Hello all!
I just really confused my self here. I heard someone last week saying the my CMM calibration ( Global Image) calibrates in Microns.? I always though it was on the tents. I'm inspecting parts that are .0004 tents on profile, I get results…
