Hello, all!
(I'm ignorant. Tear me apart!)
This is the first time I've come across this type of call out. I understand a bit about how it works, but need help with the execution.
Could someone, please, walk me through the general steps I'd take…
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'm curious what other's input is on the application of 2D and 3D distance dimensions. An example would be 2 planes that don't have opposed vector points so widths don't apply. Although they are parallel to each other. Therefore this would allow the use…
Hello, all I'm currently trying to have my comment yes/no output a check mark on a field on a custom report.
example
C6 =COMMENT/YESNO,NO,FULL SCREEN=YES,AUTO-CONTINUE=NO,OVC=NO, Are there any Blisters on the part? ASSIGN/B1=C6.INPUT IF_GOTO/C6.INPUT…
Hello , I have to convert a Metrolog program in to PC-DMIS. How can I do it quickly ? I anybody has an idea. I have the mg.prog, the mg.work and metrolog software. Thank you for your answer.
Hello, This is my cad model and coordinate system when I import it into pcdmis. My actual part is on CMM is placed as on the picture down left. How do I transform coordinate system to other point on my CAD model? How do I align it with my actual part…
Hello,
I know you can check if a file exists, however if it does not and you still want to write to the file is there a way to generate the file through pc-dmis?
We just "upgraded" to 2024.1 SP4 built # 269. When we use the auto feature for circle or cylinder then select "to points" and try to modify any of the points PC-Dmis crashes. Is anyone else seeing this? example of code to follow. we use this a lot for…
I need to iterate through all the commands in a program looking for any GeoTol dimensions that are Profile of a Surface with no datums.
How would I do this?
I have a script which enumerates over all the commands in a program.
What it does, among other things is to help us convert reporting from legacy to GeoTol.
We are only updating those dimensions that are ballooned on the print. Anything that is reference…
The last company I worked for would make create trace field commands to require inputs from an operator to be displayed in the report to actual custom file header template. It is a little tricky for me to navigate the label template header. I haven't…
The first job I programmed CMMs at it seems that when I inserted move points in my program that it worked great and exactly like I wanted it to. I could create move points in my programs OFFLINE and they would move to the exact coordinates relative to…
I am having issues getting the bonus from datums not being applied to my positional results. As you can see above, datum E should have a bonus of .1701.
Under the bonus column in the positional frame, there is .0000 bonus. Any help on getting this figured…
On a recent Hexagon service visit, the field engineer noticed in the setting editor that our “ContinousTempSensor” was turned off.
He explained that it continuously samples the temperature throughout the routine, but wasn’t able to dive deeper. We are…
hi everyone.
I will create a loop program for nesting jobs. I've completed the program, but I can't edit any features, which means if 2, 3, and 5 job holes are deviated, I can't adjust them. I've tried to edit the features, but the probe keeps returning…
I've never been able to get this to work. Everything works great when I'm measuring holes level to the surface plate, but as soon as I articulate the probe to A90B0, A90B90, or any other combination, all of my holes come out at least .010" shifted from…
We are developing a programming and reporting template based on user needs. I am working on the reporting aspect of this project, with a goal of automatically saving PDF's, XLS, and Point Cloud data to multiple locations, and using the variable input…
Good morning,
I am new to PC-DMIS and CMM's in general so any tips and information would be greatly appreciated.
My current issue is trying to program this round slot on an arc.
I will attach a portion of the print, also I don't have a CAD model…
It's not available under my graphic Items and this would be helpful for visualizing TIP angles in offline mode to check for clearance. I have a HH-AS8-T2.5
I'm interested in learning about Model-Based Definition. I would like to try and insert a CAD model with machine readable MBD made in like SolidWorks or Creo to PC-DMIS. Any discussion about MBD and your experiences are welcomed.
Hey all,
A program begins with a basic alignment and then a DCC alignment. When the program starts it asks what op you're checking, 1, 2, or 3 for example. Depending on what you select the program should construct your alignments and then move on to…
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…
