Hello everyone,
We are having trouble measuring the part. There are big diferences between our and customer's measurements. The customer is using PolyWorks.
I received point coordinates for plane A (5 points) and B (6 points) from a customer (see…
Good Morning!
I have a Feature Control Frame that has three sets of common datums [A-F], [B(M)-D(M)], & [C(M)-E].
I have defined each individual datum.
Now, I am trying to create common datums using PCDMIS: CAD++ Version - 2018 R2 (Build #504 -…
Is there a way to get the "Report textual analysis" option for profiles to export to an excel sheet / stats file?
Most of my prints use multiple profiles, and we realized in our SPC system that the profile data is basically processed as pass/fail…
Good morning all. So I have run into an issue will scanning where the probe tip comes off the part 3/4 of the way into the scan of a circle. I started looking into my setting and found that the offset force for the scan was set to .003 which seemed a…
So, I have a part that is essentially a ring with an ID and an OD. I have scanned them to get the dimensions and put them on the report. The customer wants the C/S on the report as well. Is there any way to use the scans to get the C/S dimension? or do…
I have a collection of nut plate holes, and the central hole is called out as a pattern of 68, but the rivet holes on either side of the central holes are dimensioned to each individual central hole. Is there a more succinct way to report these without…
Whenever CMM is crashed, the following error message pop up.
"The error report can be sent using your default E-mail program (Microsoft Outlook). To run the E-mail program, press "OK" otherwise press "Cancel" ". After clicking OK, another following…
Working on a new program using Paste with Pattern. I am currently using CAD++ 2024.1 release.
The rotations are a bit unusual (31 in a 360° pattern or 11.6129° each), so I decided to use variables to keep track of the rotation angle and also to figure…
We have many CMMs in our shop, and almost every one gets this critical error every day (ref image). The content of the critical error all relates to memory issues. We have added the maximum amount of RAM within our PCs, and still see the error. To bypass…
Let me preface that I'm very new to programming, as well as, operating the CMM. So something that might seem like a obvious solution to most of you is like finding a needle in a hay stack for me, haha. Thanks!
While writing a program for a part, I have…
Hello everyone

and then i Save the Programm and close it and reopen the same programm, the movement is activ again...
Can someone tell me why? :D …
Hello,
I need to show our customer the minimum and maximum of point on the surface .
a) I measured individual vector points and created a set of points (Feature set). From the set of points I evaluate Minimum and Maximum with the code below.
b)…
I'm currently using the calls Date() and Time() in PCDMIS but I need UTC time. Are there calls for that? I can't find anything else in the Basic documentation.
Thanks

I have a ring shaped part with the A datum being a plane defined by the top of the ring. There's a pattern of treaded holes normal to this face, and they're tolerance call-out is .005 true position to datum A. As I understand it this is essentially a…
After the upgrade from windows 10 to 11 the software is not working properly as before. We saw the error message below, lost reference from "Z" axis and devices started to collide.
HI,
New to PCDMIS, used to be a Quindos operator/ junior programmer, and I was hired by my company to do programing for them. I am not a fan of having to use an almost decade old version of PCDMIS but that's what the company is requiring of me. I…
Hey all, We've got some bright Machinists here that are tired of having the CMM programmer manual align their parts every few months. We get a few repeat jobs once every 6 months or so, and by that time either probe calibration, machine settling or by…
Hi,
I have a 4mm disk probe and am having trouble with calibration—I just can't get it properly calibrated. First, I calibrated the sphere probe and then started calibrating the disk probe.
I selected DCC mode and selected NO where it asks if the…
Hello everyone, I have this part that I have to measure distance 97,01 between these pins that are at an angle, meaning they are not aligned with either X,Y,Z axis. How do I measure it, do I need to align it first, if so, what kind of alignments I need…
Hi team,
I'm new to the group and using PC-DMIS.
I have experience with other CMM softwares, but this a new CMM Global S was installed at my company.
It has a travel rack attached to the right side, a scanner HP-L.10.10, and an HR-R3.
And HP-S…
Hello all and please help with system crashes,
Apologies if this has been asked before but I didn't see any recent posts and I am not getting any assistance from Hexagon tech support and have decided to save the money and let the service agreement…
