Good Day!
I have problem with defining the database "E" like on picture below (marked on blue).
(pic. 1) (section H (circle on pic. 1))

My question is if I should make database "E" as constructed plane? All points…
I am getting into scanning on 3 of the CMM machines I have, they all support scanning. My question is on the calibration and how i should approach it. I have autocalibration programs that we use to calibrate our whole library at once. I currently just…
Hi, im using PC-DMIS 2022.1 SP4. Generating generic txt file with dimensions only shows simple dimensions like distances. Dimensions like positions, that have from with it are not showed when i export them with export -> generic -> txt. Why ?
I don't know much at all about expressions, labels, etc. I've been working the past few hours trying to make a command that will end my program if a particular dimension is out of spec. All I want is a code that #1) checks that dimension, #2) has a comment…
Within an existing PC-DMIS program, we want to add some measurements which are not to be used to evaluate final pass/fail inspection result. We do want these values to appear in the same PC-DMIS report as well. Is there a way to do this in PC-DMIS? Thanks…
Hi all-
I have had many calibration questions recently.
Here is the issue:
There are two machines, running the same exact probe and build. The only difference between the two calibration setups is that on the new one, we are using a calibration…
We have an older Sheffield Cordax RS-70 DCC CMM. We just did an upgrade last year which required UCCSERVER to be included. We recently updated to PCDMIS 23.2, which helps with matters such as nicknames for probes. This is now done automatically, unfortunately…
If I do a DCC alignment to the part's datums in A90B180, then rotate the tip to A90B0 to use DCC mode to measure something else, do I need to re do the DCC alignment from scratch? Assume calibration is good on all tips and tip angles. I have heard you…
Hello,
I have not operated CMM for over four years due to responsibilities changed and now I was asked to assist with the problem and do not know howe to handle this issue. There are few programs that was created back on 2004 and the team want me to…
Hello everyone,
First of all, I apologize for my poor use of English. I will try to make myself understood.
My problem is the following;
I'm working on a script to select the different orientations of my probe, but graphically I only manage…

I'm just wondering if there is any way to set default settings for GeoTol.
Specifically, I would dearly love it if I could:
Set CadGraph = ON
Set the arrow multiplier = 10
Set the "Report Datum Size" = OFF
Set "Iterate and…
(PC-DMIS Version 2020R2)
We recently migrated to using GeoTol.
Because of this, we are beginning to use constructed widths as datums instead of mid-planes, mid-lines, or mid-points.
I am having issues constructing widths in certain instances.

For context, I have only been programming for our CMM for less than a month after taking the CMM 101 class through Hexagon last month.
I have enough knowledge to write a fairly successful program; however, this knowledge has been lacking when trying…
Good morning,
I have recently set up a program for a welded flange that has a position callout from one welded cylinder to a perpendicular plane(A) and a cylinder (B) located on the flange beyond the welded cylinder .
it has a position of .025…
Hello.
First of all, excuse me if i'm not very understandable. I'll try to be as clear as possible.
I'm French and i teach CMM with PC DMIS. We have a Tigo SF. We're having trouble with the probe changer : after calibration, we use the standard protocole…
Hi guys, first post here, but I've been scouring the forums for hours trying to find the solution to this one
I've got a set of features that are common across a slew of different parts, so I've made a subroutine that measures those features and reports…
Good Morning All!
I will make this short. I am taking over the position of the previous CMM Operator and have to make my own account on the computer connected to the CMM. When I opened up the program in the new account, I realized that nothing transfers…
I am working with PCDMIS and a 7axis Hexagon roamer arm. Currently I have a fairly complex part and with several compound angles about the duct work on this part and do not have a solid model but need one. Is there a good method of probing planes and…
Hello, I am very new to working with CMMs (just got through PC-DMIS for CMM 101) and have kinda got thrown into the deep end, so please bear with me if this is a dumb question. I have a part that the primary datum is a outside profile of a "V" that has…
I require positive reporting for my excel template to function properly. I added the parameter to the beginning of my program "POSITIVEREPORTING/X,Y,Z/ALLDATA". I am still getting 2 dimensions reporting as negative. (I haven't used this function before…
