All Activity

Hi, there could be several 3D placeholders, one for each stage on a report page with the inspection details for all elements on it ZEISS Quality Tech Guide to get a quick view of the status. There is also the possibility to create stage ranges dynamically by expressions. With the expression project_statistics.all.number_of_within_tolerance != project_statistics.all.number_of_toleranced_attributes there will be a stage range with all stages with at least one inspection out of tolerance. If you set this stage range active with report style 'Table', the table will only show stages, where this condition is met. When the stage range is active and a report page is created with this view, it will update dynamically. The table needs one visible check, but the display could be edited to something like this:

hahaha, okay, understood

Undo button, Go through it's pockets and look for loose change.

Hallo zusammen, mir Stellt sich die Frage ob es einen Weg gibt, die Tastereinmessung im Piweb-Protokoll abzuspeichern. Hintergrund ist das bei uns mehre unterschiedliche Leute, in unterschiedlichen Abteilungen die Tastereinmessung durchführen, im Arbeitsprotokoll wird die Personal-Nr. nicht abspeichert. Den Arbeitsprotokollkopf kann man nicht bearbeiten? Hat jemand eine Idee wie ich das umsetzen kann? Hinweis es sollte ohne PCM funktionieren.

Update: Instead of using results element for the calibration date, it was added in the comment. Thanks to Michael Schultze for sharing the knowledge.

I don't think so. The Position of a CF to A would just be the orientation of the symmetric plane to A (Perpendicularity), but the Position of a 2x pattern to A would be each of their orientations to A (Perpendicularity) as well as their respective orientation and location to each other.

Moin Manuel, also ich empfehle Dir bzw. wir weißen nur die Streuung und den Durchmesser/Radius von den Tastern aus. Die Position wird ja durch das Kalibrieren/Einmessen komepnsiert. LG Christian

A brilliant joke to round off the weekend. I’ll be laughing out loud over and over again for days to come! Thank you so much!

We use AutoRun on some of our machines, but for others the desk dropdown would be massive. Thank you anyway

Hi Monika, I´ve changed this in the "Charateristic" directly. You just have to pay attention to which direction the + and - - goes into the material (Ø gets smaller) + goes in the other direction. This works for th hole curve.

Hi everyone, Does anyone know if there's an undo button, or if there's a way to access it? Thanks a lot.

I'm interested, isn't it the same thing in this case - pattern or continuous feture?

I enclosed send the drawing details. That is in 2 outer ground diamters. The lengths of cylinder: 22h6 about 25mm long, 25h6 about 30mm long.

Yes this was corrected in Calypso 2024 and beyond. Also note that there was a huge change in the way the DRF was built inside of the GD&T engine in 2023 and 2024+. Mainly it is in the fact that no matter what orientation the program was in, the 2023 engine built the DRF in the X/Y plane, but 2024+ tried to retain the original orientation, so if you open a program in 2024+ that was built in 2023 be prepared to update the nominals of the Position characteristics.

I mean "technically" you should, but given that it is only .020" deep that might pose to be a challenge.

You are correct. For whatever reason I was looking at it as a continuous feature. You would still need to measure it as planes, correct?

@Tom Oakes No. The cookbook does not follow the d:r rule per the ISO spec in most cases. In addition, it makes no note of the d:r rule. According to the ISO spec you would actually need to use a 1mm stylus for a 251mm diameter, and then scale up from there. Having said all of that, the ISO spec still never says that you should use; it just specifies requirements for whichever one you do use. In addition, I did notice that the ISO spec requirements that I showed was for Longwave-pass which I wouldn't think you should use Longwave-pass filters for a roundness evaluation. I will also note that per NIST, they only use the 50UPR when certifying ring gages (regardless of size).......

Thanks, Martin. I'll keep playing around with it to see what happens. I did also start a dedicated thread for this issue here in General Category as well, in case there are other answers there.

Thanks Lucas. Pending further input, I'll chalk it up to Beta and see if it corrects when we upgrade next.

@CASEY SNODGRASS I've never got this resolved - restarting Calypso is working and i can not replicate this behaviour on purpose - it's random

Hello Casey, I believe this behavior is expected in CALYPSO 2023. I tested this on my system and receive the same icons in the PiWeb report. Please keep in mind that the GD&T engine is a beta version in CALYPSO 2023. I hope this helps even though it might not be the answer you are looking for.

Side note: All the new gdt engine icon DO show up in the characteristics tab, just not on the PiWeb report

@Richard Shomaker Does the probe diameter listed above not fall in line with cookbook? The table above is in line with the cookbook with the following exception. Calypso requires 7 points per undulation, which I believe is pretty standard. The cookbook produces 8 point per undulation, which is ok. I overheard someone say, "Zeiss gives you an extra one just in case a point was an outlier". Still sounds hokey to me. I always said, "more points is ok". If I am not mistaken, the cookbook also calculates 8 points per wavelength. I do remember one time at an AE conference at Zeiss, Alisha Andersen got very animated when Jim York stated using 21 points per wavelength was needed in his presentation, or something along those lines. Alisha had a huge grin on her face. The room was laughing out loud. Sorry Alisha. Also, in my 2nd BASIC Calypso class, the instructor JG, trained us to use the filter/outlier settings in Save/Load Defaults. He said, "just check all 12 of the checkboxes with their default settings." This applies filters/outliers to every characteristic automatically. He suggested that using filters and outliers even if the settings were not optimized, it was still better than not using them at all.

Good afternoon, folks. Just started using the GDT Engine in Calypso 2023 (7.6.20) and am having some reporting issues. I was able to find the work-around to get rid of the additional diameter report line, but the icons for perp, parallel, cylindricity and position are not showing on the report. Instead, there is a pictogram of a sheet of paper... Is this a setting or something I need to change, am I missing something or is this an issue anyone else has seen? Thanks in advance for any and all input. I have faith that the people on this forum will have an aswer.

I'm just going to add on to this tread before starting a new one. Now that I have "hidden" the extra diameter line successfully, does anyone have any input as to why my reports do not show the associated icons for GDT evals when using the gdt engine? instead of the icon for perp, parallel, cyclindricity, position, etc., it is showing a picto of a sheet of paper.
