dimension 'volume' on a report

[[Gr...]]

i need to report 'volume' of an inside cylinder out to a customer. i have 3 features, two planes and a cylinder. i just dont know how to group them together and report out volume.

 Measure a point to point distance for the planes. This is your cylinder height. Measure the diameter of the cylinder. Volume = Height X π X Radius² and your result element unit should be cubic (³).

the actual calculation wasn't the issue. i know calypso can do it and report it for me:

4. Calculate the Volume

• In the Results or Analysis section, CALYPSO can compute the enclosed volume from the measured geometry.

• You can:

  • Use the Volume function in the measurement plan to directly calculate the volume.

  • Or, import the point cloud into a CAD/CAE tool (e.g., SolidWorks, NX) and use its built-in volume calculation.  

this is a partial screenshot from a google search. 

thank you.

Hi Greg - I would also recommend using a result element. More information on using a result element can be found here: https://portal.zeiss.com/knowledge-base?id=1796588
