[Da...] Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 What I have to inspect is a small (<1" x <1") "square" metal part which I will hold with a smallish, mounted grinding vise. I don't have any way to mount it in such a way that I could measure both sides together, so this is the best I can do. The datums are all on the one side; datum A is the top plane of the part, and datums B and C are small cylindrical protrusions (about the size and shape of a semi-perf, actually) which create the x, y origins (B), and planar rotation (C). The edges of the part are machined and easily measured. On the other side are 2 threaded holes and 2 linear profiles dimensioned from the first side. Since one side of the part will be up against the same edge of the part measured previously, my idea is to flip the part, measure these same 2 edges, then simply transpose the origin to the same place. Rotation shouldn't be changed while the vise jaw is used to prevent that. I've done this with PC-DMIS before, but not with Calypso. What do I need to know?
