plane to top of cylinder dimension


Recommended Posts

Couple different ways but probably the simplest would be, measure the flat as a plane, measure the diameter.
Go to Size, more and select result element.
Right click in the formula box and choose the Actual feature attributes as defined below to create the formula:
getActual("Circle1").radiusD2- getActual("Plane1").x
Glad to help.

If you're scanning, with that tight of tolerance on the 3.5 Ø, be sure to use the correct UPR spline filter of 15upr.

Recommend filter to use per size:
Metric
< 8mm =15upr
8- 25mm =50upr
26 - 80mm =150upr
81 - 250mm =500upr
>250mm = 5000upr
Inch
<0.3150 = 15upr
0.315 – 1.02362 =50upr
1.0236 – 3.1496 = 150upr
3.189 – 9.8425 = 500upr
> 9.8425 = 5000upr
Jacob,
Yes, some kind of book.
It also says to use a Gauss filter (not spline) and to include prefilter and 5 adjacent points.
As always, there are a lot of variables that should be taken into consideration (material, probe size, length, balance,probe head type, etc.) and there are a lot of disclaimers (in Da'book) recommending each and every check be validated. That's why they're called good "default" strategies.
Da'book also says to use Vast Navigator's "optimal" speeds instead of recommendations if it's available on your system, however, I've found instances where Navigator speed recommendations weren't optimal at all. 164_e7e0bb7252713f572d2bc1f76e52f1d2.jpg

The Cookbook says Gauss, but If you talk to anyone at Zeiss, they will tell you Spline is better. The Gauss filter has some issues with distortion at the boundaries or ends of the dataset. Spline is supposed to eliminate this problem. Not sure why the Cookbook still says to use Gauss.

So after measuring the part on the cmm I saw that actual diameter on the cmm does not match what Im measuring with my mic. Any idea what i can do to fix this inconsistency? I am getting .124 (3.149mm)

Are you using the correct filter and speed?
Use a 15 UPR and speed shouldn't be more than 0.118 and make sure you're recording at least 105 points.

To test to see if it's the speed or filter causing the size difference , measure the dia with 4 to 6 single points and if the size is correct, it's the speed or filter causing the issue.

Also, look at the roundness plot and see what it looks like, if it's garbled or missing sections, it's the filter or outliers removing too much data.
