Measuring Actual data with no CAD

[[Ke...]]

How would i take my actual scan data and show low/ high spots? I don't have CAD but is there a way to show flatness in a form of where the part has deviation? I understand the Flatness call out but being able to show something along the lines of deviation labels?

You could compare it to the mesh of a reference sample. You can load that as CAD.

for flatness this is possible like so:

• build an alignment
• build a plane
• check the plane for flatness
• go to properties and activate "show colour ..."
• put some deviation labels on if you like

Also works for other geometric elemnts

When i load it as a CAD model there is ZERO deviation. How would i show Actual mesh data having low and high spots without using CAD model?

When you load the same mesh as CAD it should show no deviations. Working as intended.

Thats why i mentioned a reference sample or master part.

 

To my knowledge, you can`t compare freeform without a CAD. The CAD is the information for the comparision.
