Hi guys and gals,
See my attached picture.
Drawing just states a simple dimension for the groove width shown.
"3.5 ±0.1mm" The dimension is implied for the entire profile of the feature. I can check this with pin gages of course, but this wouldn’t be too handy for tuning purposes.
I've tried a few different ideas to get it to match what I observe with pin gages.
The closest so far is a Line profile form only with a bilateral .1mm tolerance zone.
This still doesnt give me what I really need though, because of the fitting to the Theos.
I need a 2D distance from each scan hit to a intersecting point on the opposite scan.
I made the scans have the same number of hits, (as a last ditch effort) to dimension between hits via a 2D dimension. But this doesnt seem to work either as the theo values for the hits keep changing and screwing everything up.
I dont believe Im the first person to try to measure something like this, so please help me
.
Anyone got any ideas on what else to try?
Thanks
