[Ja...] Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 I found this attachment here on the forum. On page 116, it talks about "self-center scan a helical cylinder up the thread with at least 5 revolutions". Does this require an active head? I am using a vast XXT.

[To...] Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 No. You can do helical scan on threads with XXT. Maybe not as fast as VAST but it does work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Ri...] Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Please sign in to view this quote. If you are using an XXT, I recommend the linear line scans up the thread. You will need to go slower, and collect a lot of points. Then in the Outlier Elimination set the factor to (1) Inside and (3) Outside, number of adjacent points to (5), number of iterations to (3) - like I said you will need a lot of data for this to work correctly. See the attached screenshots for an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
