[Za...] Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Could somebody point me in the right direction for how to obtain this measurement? I want to take the middle of this radius and measure the distance to a bore. How do I get that middle point?

[Cl...] Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 From the center of the radius that the red arrow is pointing to? I don't see a nominal dimension for the radius in question? Without seeing the entire print, of how your aligning the part, there could be an easier way to do it, but I'd say one way would be to scan a 2d curve along that surface and use minimum coordinate (assuming that side is Y-). That will give you the farthest Y- point on the curve. Make that point a secondary alignment (XY zero), then translate (Y+) the nominal radius. Now your at the center of the radius.

I'm sure there's a few things I could have used it for so far, but I've had to find a way around it. I can upload more of the print, but I really just need to know how to set a point right in the middle of the radius (either low or high point depending on which way you're looking at it) to compare to other sections of the part.

[Cl...] Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Not much radius to measure, but do anyway, (single points) then constrain X&Y in the evaluation. Now you can measure from the radius center to the bore.

[Me...] Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I may be misunderstanding but it looks to me that dimension #20 measures from your Datum Axis line to the end plane, a picture of both your datum and the callout would be more helpful.

Here is a little bit more of the print if that helps 🙂 Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/15734-minmax-feature-point-or-coordinate/#findComment-85734 Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Cl...] Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Measure the radius (single points) which will be a small segment, maybe 90 deg or so, recall the points into a circle feature, make sure that circle is set to 360 deg constrain X&Y, caliper distance bore (center) to circle (max).

Thank you Clarke! Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/15734-minmax-feature-point-or-coordinate/#findComment-85738 Share on other sites More sharing options...
