I need help with checking the true position of a circle using a datum from another program for mating holes. I have only used single variables on features and dimensions within the same program. I am new to programing with expressions and I am struggling…
My company has recently upgraded from the 2017 version of PCDMIS to version 2022.1 SP4, now this has been a pain free update as far as I can tell, that was until I started trying to create a new custom report
Previously when using a custom report…
Hello everyone
I need to inspect some gage on a circular part as shown in image.
1st case : Diameter should be kept constant and distance to be inspected
2nd case : Distance should be kept constant and dimeter to be inspected
how should I proceed…
we are using following code to find max and min dia among 93 holes inspected
can someone suggest any alternate way?
ASSIGN/COUNT=0
ASSIGN/NUM_OF_DIM=93
ASSIGN/MMPROF1=0
ASSIGN/MMPROF2=0
ASSIGN/MAX_DIM=0
ASSIGN/MIN_DIM=0
ASSIGN/MAX_PROF=0
ASSIGN…
Is there any separate manual for Flow control commands, file i/o command, Assignments?
can someone please share it if anyone has it. this will be very helpful.
Hi All,
I recently took over as the supporting engineer for our CMM room and one of the initial things I'm working on is getting our software up to date. We have been running 2015 for quite a while and just recently updated to 2020 and we're running…
Where I work I very frequently have position dimensions called out in sets. When the DRF is not fully constrained, or when there are MMB modifiers on datums, its critical to call the holes out as sets so any Datum Shift is the same for all the holes in…
I've got a part here that requires hundreds of inspections, so we created a fixture to run 15 of the parts in one execution so i'm not required to come back to the CMM every few minutes. I've hit a wall though where I need my reports to print per part…
Hello,
I have a problem with exporting to txt file.
At our company we just get a new machine so now we have three of them. On all of them we measure with same programs.
So the problem is now we would like to include in txt file on which machine…
I have gauge with 2 different diameters inside – bowtie shape. Smaller dia I measure with no problems, for larger I created 2 loops, 12 points each. I even managed to construct circle and measure it (you guys helped me a few weeks ago to do this). Because…
I am trying to figure out a way to automatically mark or unmark feature dimensions that are out of tolerance.
I have a program that includes some if/then statements where it re-measures a diameter at a different depth if the first one is OOT.
So my…
Is this important?
I would imagine so, considering all the parts have datums, but what is the difference from, say, setting a point as Datum A and dimensioning a feature to Datum A, and setting a point and dimensioning a feature to said point?

Basically, I have a cylindrical part in a rotary table. I take a few hits with a touch probe to align, and make some measurements for some notches.
After…
Hello all!
I have a cylindrical part mounted on a rotary table.
The print calls out 4 different angles on 4 subsequent sets of notches (each set of 4 having a different angle).
To measure the angles, I create an alignment, rotating the axis by the…
Hello everyone,
I got a problem.. When the measurement ends I want to save report to specific location, depending on where the part was made (we have same part, but we make it on 2 machines)..
I am using PRINT command, but it sometimes saves blank…
I have a diameter that is very slightly tapered but is square within CAD. From the top surface, I measure the diameter every 0.5mm measuring about 10 cirles in all.
Im trying to figure out how to report ONLY the smallest diameter and not all 10 diameters…
