Hi guys, nice new home.
First of all, as usual, thanks to everyone that posts here, this is a great resource for users of the pcdmis software.
I am having some troubles on tight tolerance holes passing true position tests. The problem is with a hole that measures via pin gage to be in tolerance, but I am showing it to be undersize and out of tolerance within the execution of my program. The question I have also will apply to a couple of features that I cannot feasibly get to with my probe to check so they will be checked manually with mic's etc.
So, how do I do a true position callout in my report on a feature I have manually measured? I can report the location fine, but not the size. This is what I am looking to do. Manually add the size of the feature after have verified its location. Can I do this with a combination of keyed in dimension? ie, locations, and size, then use those keyed in features to do a true position callout?
Second of all, I have read here that there are different ways the hits can be interpreted, I can't find the thread again and I can't find it in the help files in the software either. The jist of the comment was that there are like four ways to interpret the hits and create a circle from them. Could a different method give me more accurate results and how do I find out which method I am using?
I am running a B&S 7-10-7 with, I believe MR3 version, have to check on that tomorrow. PH10T wrist, TP200 module, 60mm ext and 3 by 40 stylus. All of the length is required to reach the feature
I have been at this for about a year now and am having pretty good success considering that my only training has been via the books and these forums.
Thank you
