Description
The objective of this CMM training course is to allow first time users of PC-DMIS to gain a basic understanding of the CMM software and measurements necessary to write and execute inspection plans.
Outline
Probe calibration
Alignments
Measurements
Dimensioning
Manual and DCC modes
Using CAD models
PCDMIS LEVEL ➁
Course
This course introduces iterative and best fit alignments, auto and quick alignments, more advance dimensioning and extended auto features. Automating probe calibrations and using patterns and loops are included. Scanning concepts for both Touch Trigger Probe (TTP) and Analog Probe users are also taught. Topics include scanning with and without models, using Measurement Strategies and data filtering.
Length
Four days
Prerequisite
English literacy, PC-DMIS Level 1
Description
This CMM course extends the training from the Level 1 courses to include advanced alignments, CAD usage, program control and dimensioning. Students will learn autocalibration and how to include logic commands in their PC-DMIS programs. Scanning concepts and procedures using the Touch Trigger and Analog Probes are also covered. Students will learn how to execute several types of scans with and without a CAD model as well as how to export and view the results of a scan.
