All Activity

Not that I'm aware of. You should always perform some sort of routine qualification, but that frequency if completely up to you, and your company (usually risk assessment is needed).

@Richard Shomaker So nothing really saying you HAVE to do the others unless due to a machine crash.

It depends.... Did you crash the machine? If yes, it's probably in your best interest to requalify all stylus/stylus systems. If you are just simply replacing a stylus due to wear or switching sizes/lengths, then most likely no.

I could not find any clear answer on this, If I replace a probe and have to re find the ref. sphere location with the master to calibrate that probe do I have to calibrate all other probes on my rack or can I just calibrate the one probe I replaced and the rest will compensate?

In Resources - Design custom printout - Editor for user-defined printout header variables Make sure your custom header variables are mapped. Then, once you run the measurement plan once, it will now be accessible via the drop-down inside the database.

@Adam Huff, I've experienced a similar issue, so I'm curious if yours is the same as I faced. When you open the "Create Features" window and then click on the CAD model, does this allow you to extract and create features while that window is open (by assigning the feature type from the Create Features buttons)?

Unfortunately, healing the model does not work either.

Yes, thank you Martin and thank you Jochen, with Max Curvature point with curve curvature it works fine. Thank you very much!

Once you have a curve, then you can use measuring principle - Curve Curvture. Then you can fill that Curve

Sorry can`t help you with that. I havent used this function myself yet. Just remembered reading about it somewhere (prob techguide).

Thank you very much! How can I do this? I make a section with the 4 zone, then I make a curve from this section (I found Projected Curve) and finally I tried to make a pojnt of max curvature, but it's not possible to select this curve.

Maybe if you go by point of maximum curvature on selection? The cavity number should include thhis point with the right selection of surfaces. Probably wont be the max point in z, but at least you can detect the side of the caviity number and with further checks get the max point in z.

With styli that short, you'll likely need at adjust your taper angle to avoid shanking. Under stylus system management, locate your stylus system and go to the Geometry tab. You should see a column called Taper Angle. The default setting is 180º (the equator of the reference sphere). You'll need to shoot for a smaller taper angle until you find one that works (maybe 165º?). Note that changing this setting, although calibration would be successful, means the probe isn't being physically checked where it would make actual contact with your parts (i.e. your probe could develop wear at it's equator, but your calibration would theoretically be in spec as it uses math to account for the taper).

Excuse me but I didn't understand what do you mean. I have to took the highest point coming from 2 different directions. If the piece was only rotated around the Z axis thsi is not a problem, but in this case I have the piece rotated around the X axis, but I have to take the maximum point coming from Z+ and Z-. I hope I explained myself.

I was taught you can export or see maximum model from all stages - but i don't know much more from head and i am not sure if you can do this evaluation across all stages.

Windows cmd, with .bat file ? you would have to guesstimate the gear run time per program, and use it in Calypso to start a timer, etc. Would take some development, but just a thought, obviously don't want to close it too soon.

Good morning to all, I need to align a part that has perfect symmetry in Z, but I would like to align the various stages using the figure number on the same side. Unfortunately, the “disc caliper on selection” strategy cannot be applied, because I would like to find the outermost point relative to Z zero, but in this case the maximum point can be either on the Z− side or the Z+ side. Is there any workaround that can be used to achieve this? Thank you very much.

And to be specific, i find the *visual* of the woman talking distracting and unnecessary. The actual narration voice is okay

You tried getting a working template from the other facilities and replace the existing? Maybe just data corruption or other stuff that doesnt really make sense from a user perspective.

Thank you for the reply. While I feel you are likely on the right track, I'm not sure this is the issue. When I edit the report page and check properties, the mesh structure is disabled. However, occasionally, just opening this menu and closing again fixes the issue for that report page. Likely, the issue is either in the template (created before I was onboarded) as you stated, or is a hardware/software setting issue. Two other facilities have the same hardware config I do, but they do not have the same issue, and they use the same template so that leads me to believe it is something relating to GPU settings or something similar.

Ja ja.... Wenn man seit der 2. Klasse English hatte und niemals deutsch synchronisierte Filme sondern immer nur Amerikanische ( also auch keine Britischen.. ) Filme gesehen hat, mag man vielleicht ein wenig verstehen. Wie wäre es mit einem Video "Utbillen to Form, Oort, Laag un Loop". Dat deed woll veel Beachtung finnen. Plattdeutsch kann auch jeder fließend...

The AI narrator is incredibly distracting and unnecessary (But the content is GREAT!)

I took the Expert class this year and found it incredibly informative. There is a bit of irony in that the more specialized your use case is, the less you care about specialized techniques out of your area. But I thought the class did a great job of expanding what is generally possible for a programmer. I learned a lot even though I have put a lot of effort into self-study. I found the pace to be useful for someone with heavy IT background, but also approachable for those that don't. (I didn't need to know what a .bat file was, but others in my class needed the foundation) While I would *never* recommend Basic training remote, this class did not require very much use of a physical CMM and I would have found it to be a waste of time to fly all the way to a training site. I had our CMM blocked off for me to use for 4 hours a day for the training, but I was able to "sneak in" during production runs to do the practical parts of the lessons in much much less time. Note that the names of the training have changed in the last few years "Level 1/2/3" is now "Basic/Intermediate/Expert"

Moin, Du kannst zumindest die Auswahl "Keine Spindel" vorbelegen mit: kValue=20008 defaultValue=0 [u_spindel_list] 0=Keine Spindel 1=1 bzw. Links 2=2 bzw. Rechts 3=3 4=4 Prüfung mit maxLength ist ja nett aber es gibt kein minLength für alphanumerische Ausdrücke. Bei meiner Version ( 7.4.24 ) führt die Typenprüfung type=a gleich zu einem Fehler. Fraglich ist ob der Wert von defaultValue geprüft wird der ja in Falle einer Liste nur der Index ist. Ansonsten wäre maximumValue und minimumValue eine Option zu prüfen ob der Index zwischen0 und 4 liegt.

I had this happen once when the "Work Area" checkbox got checked in the CAD Hierarchy. (There appears to be some sort of system to declare some CAD pieces a fixture and some your model but I could not figure it out and do not recommend touching it)
