[De...] Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Hello community! I am hoping for a solution to a mistake I made. There was an older part with no cad model which I created through the Calypso features, but I did so with all units in millimeters instead of inches. Is there a way to scale all the features of a CAD Model by 25.4X within Calypso? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[De...] Posted March 15, 2023 Author Share Posted March 15, 2023 Would that mean the sizes of the features would change, but not the locations in relation to each other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ri...] Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 This might work. If you have access to a CAD program (IE: SolidWorks, etc) open the CAD model and scale it accordingly. Upload the newly scaled model in your CMM program. Set your Units to the desired value, Inch or Metric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would mean that the model size would change correctly, but measurement features you already extracted from it would not. So if you created a 30 mm circle before scaling, it will still be 30 mm afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Er...] Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 So the CAD is in inches? Why not set Calypso to inches and then import? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
