Export Curve Points

[[Ri...]]

Hello All,

I'm scratching my head trying to export the XYZ point data from a few Curves that I have measured.

When I just right click and export the points, when I view them, they don't look right - there are offsets in the data, and the number of points exported is only equal to the nominal point count, not the actual point count.

When I view the data in a Line Profile plot, it looks correct. When I export the Curve from Calypso to Zeiss Inspect Airoil, it looks correct too. I did find the points inside of an XML file, but it isn't radius compensated yet, and it doesn't show the nominal vector, so I cannot compensate. 🙁

Anyways, anyone have any idea on how to get the actual surface data out of Calypso for a Curve?

It should show window with export settings.
You can export nominal or actuals with or without vectors.
You can export from center or calculated touch point.

Many years ago, I used to use Curve Points found at the bottom of the Results to File window. Click the help button to get info on this option.

Sorry, my post may not make sense.

The points exported are not all of the actual points that it took. If you measured a 3:1 of actual to nominal, you only get 1:1 of actual points.

I did end up figuring out how to export out of ZIA, but I am still confused. Lol.

I find that the measured curve points can be exported by choosing the Nom/Act comparison option for the export function.
