Hello everybody,
I have a program in my possession, which was programmed by a former colleague. In this program there is among other things an outside diameter, which is programmed as an Auto Feature. This diameter is measured with 6 measuring points.
Step 1: Between the measuring points 1-3 a circular movement takes place.
Step 2: After measuring point 3 (Z = -0.8) a movement in Z+ (approx. Z = +10) takes place first, so that the probe is positioned above the component. The probe then moves over the component and then positions itself before measuring point 4 at Z = -0.8 again.
Step 3: Between the measuring points 4-6 a circular movement takes place again.
As you can probably already guess, Z = -0.8 is entered as the target declaration for Z in the Auto Feature. But now I have to change this Z-value to Z = -1.3. If I adjust the value here, my complete probe path changes in such a way that the movement between measuring steps 3 and 4 is deleted and a collision would occur.
Now my question: Do you know how I can adjust the path between these two measuring points again so that I avoid a collision? By clicking on the probe path in the display window I can only move the probe points, but not the probe path and certainly not in Z.
I have attached a screenshot from the preview image of the unchanged Auto Feature. I hope I have translated all terms of the PC-DMIS software correctly, because I use the German version.
