Is anyone using the new Hexagon qflash White Light Scan systems?
I am looking for some user feedback regarding accuracy, issues, reporting, bugs etc.
I have used a Steinbichler scanner with Polyworks, and also a Romer with Polyworks and I am wondering…
Hi,
We are using scanning SM25-1 modules on our Global Adavantage 575 CMM's.
Are there any surefire methods for testing the modules to check to see if they are damaged.
Are there any tell tale signs that I can look out for that will help me…
Hi,
This started Today. Probe will not calibrate. Running SP25 Scanning Head. Probe tries to run through the sphere and error pops up then.
I have checked probe length and set up and al looks good.
Any Ideas?
Hi,
I am having an issue with changing our offset force. We run an offset force of 0.1N. Hexagon settings run it at 0.25N. When I change it in parameter settings and try to calibrate a probe, the Offset force reverts back to 0.25N and excess probe…
Hello,
I am wondering, if it's possible, to scan a part without a CAD File and extrapolate data and measurements from the scan and export that data into a CAD File. If this is possible, how do you do that?
Thank you!
I am an experienced programmer but never used a scanning head, I currently got employed by a company with a nice scanning head and want to scan this big gear insert for profile but I am having a hard time figuring this out. I kind of thought it would…
Just started at a new company a few days ago and they have a touch trigger scanning probe (sm25). I managed to set it up with no prior knowledge of what i was doing but all ive managed is single line scans. I dont have a CAD and need to know how to do…
Ok here is my question, I have been given the task of running a 30pc study on a rear window of a car. Just explain our plant is an Auto glass supplier for North America. So these rear windows are put on a fixture that checks for curve and bend comparison…
We are looking at getting a replacement for our manual CMM. The one we are looking at the most is the Micro-Height 3D.
I was wondering what anyone knew about the scanning capabilities of the Reflex software?
Software: PC-DMIS Portable
Equipment: Absolute Arm Romer
We have an IP set up in the shop and we have to scan the whole part for exporting a cloud of points for surfacing. We can get most of the part but have to move the Romer arm to complete the…
Hello, Crazy Man here again.
I have a part that has multiple cones and I need to scan it utilizing a model, a SP600M Head & PC-DMIS 3.7.
The print calls out a Surface Profile of .005 to Datums A & B.
Here's how I have the program started:…
When I am checking a part and I use the scan option, how do I compare points to nominals from the CAD data? For example, I import a part with CAD and I can use the hard-probe and touch a point and on the report it will say, Nominal = 95.00 Actual = 94…
*SOLVED*
With no program open, Edit>MachineInterfaceSetup the "Use TCPIP to drive machine" tick box was not checked. Which is why I wasn't getting the message, it did not think it needed the connection, so no error when it wasn't there. The IP addy…
Hi All,
I am looking for optimum scan setting parameters for a
SP25 Analogue Scan probe on a Sheffield Endeavor.
It seems that with Version 2011, I am having more difficulty
getting scans to work. I understand that there are scanning
limitations…
Is my CMM kaput?!
I am creating section scans around an aerofoil cut in the Z height. I create a basic scan with a cut section of 0,0,1.
The scan works fine - that is untill you zoom in. You can see that the scan has not kept to it's intended height…
Hi all!
I've created a program that runs several scans of a pot. After running the scan, I exported the data as an .igs file. Engineering then did a drop test of the pot and wants me to re-run the program to compare the profiles created by the original…
