    Will this work? (creating datum simulator)

    2019 R2 CAD...

    Hi All,

    Everything on my op sheet is back to -A- and -B-.

    -A- bottom face, MODEL DOES NOT SHOW THIS BUT THE ACTUAL PART HAS A BEVEL GEAR so Datum -A- is interrupted in 100+ places.
    -B- is the top ID.

    I want to create a datum simulator surface on the top of the inspection risers that the part will be sitting on

    Does this all seem legit?

    Code:
    LOADPROBE/SMALLYELLOW
            TIP/T1A0B0, SHANKIJK=0, 0, 1, ANGLE=0
            MOVESPEED/ 250*0.9
            TOUCHSPEED/ 5
            PREHIT/0.25
            RETRACT/0.25
            CHECK/0.26,1
            COMMENT/OPER,NO,FULL SCREEN=NO,AUTO-CONTINUE=NO,
            Put part up on risers (gear face down.
            Risers making contact with gear face.
            Risers at 7:00, 11:00, and 3:00
            COMMENT/OPER,NO,FULL SCREEN=NO,AUTO-CONTINUE=NO,
            TAKE PART OFF OF THE RISERS. PUT PART IN A SAFE SPOT. 
            COMMENT/OPER,NO,FULL SCREEN=NO,AUTO-CONTINUE=NO,
            Put probe above the center of the 
            7:00 riser (as shown)

    wow, that's a lot to get a plane......

    Here's an idea, use 3 tooling balls, measure those (as spheres), construct a plane through them, then in your alignment offset by the ball radius. Should be a 'simple' thing to make. Flat plate, 3 reamed holes, 3 tooling balls. bingo-bango-bongo. You could even put in 2 dowels pins to use as locators for the part. Quick, easy fixture to make, and you KNOW that your part is only touching those 3 points.

    Other than that, I guess it is legit.

    Nothing wrong with taking manual touches on those risers as well. IF you are worried about the exact locations not being the same every time, you could code it so that it will DCC the EXACT manual touches you take. This is a template program I have for when they dump of bunch of reverse engineering work on me. I measure a plane and 2 dowels in a detail, then it goes into DCC mode and takes the EXACT touches for the plane that I took on the table and the centers of the dowels I measured, no matter where I take the hits.

      Wow, what's it like reverse engineering with a bridge CMM?

    what's it like? 90% of it is 2D (lines, circles, and 2D scans). The other 10% is then done with the Romer, using the same pickups as used on the CMM.

        Most of what we RE is trim steels, not form steels. Usually work we get in to replace busted up details (yeah, that part sucks). We get this work from the same places that we build tools for, and WE are always required to include updated designs of each and every detail in the tool. But for some reason, they apparently don't require others to do the same, so, 2D scanning....
