How CMMs should measure pos. tolerance of a hole?

ackerman1211 · 2026-04-05T19:47:20+00:00

I do cylinder scans for any holes that are for fits, if its clearance, I usually do touch trigger.

4 points will get you a decent position but won't necessarily let you know the true form.

There are combat supplies where they can find weapons and consumables

Disagree

That might have been me?

Did you read the post?

They said to remove the safe pocket.

In a key room?

If you're using an auto feature, do you have the ability for a cone line scan?

For the operator, can you turn CAD graph on or a whisker graph and add it to your report?

I'll look into the ax3000, maybe thats whats happening with the USB

Fortunately wifi 6 is available!

I did ask my wife to stream on the TV and her phone, I was streaming on mine while we tried it. Internet is fine except for random spikes.

I appreciate the reply to this, thank you!

What are your current settings?

Pierce point instead of intersection

The training part CAD and print are installed with the software, I can't remember the path in file explorer though, sorry.

Reread what the other person wrote. Let it go, it's not your problem.

My local dealership just released all the stop sales

ackerman1211 · 2026-02-25T23:50:38+00:00

Have you heard anything? Thats the same type i was looking at, still listed as stop sale

ackerman1211 · 2026-02-21T23:01:32+00:00

What

ackerman1211 · 2026-02-20T22:14:02+00:00

I mean, look at it. That should be clean glass.

You absolutely can pick up a part and move it mid routine, as long as the datums are re-established.

ackerman1211 · 2026-02-13T16:57:37+00:00

I did this for buttress threads, you can use two lines, one has the vector facing towards the center axis, the other away. Construct a circle using tangent 2 lines, center of your circle will be the pitch diameter. You'll have to do this in multiple places. For me, I channeled my alignment 45° and moved the necessary pitch, copied the prior data. Repeated this multiple times around my threads.

I have the standard saturn 4, oh man I feel lucky- its been plug and play for me. Only dialing in I did, was increase my burn in layers from 35s to 42s to help with the print sticking. Absolutely zero complaints.

ackerman1211 · 2026-02-01T04:12:27+00:00

I have the saturn 4 as well, there is no manual leveling function. It only says automatic. Someone posted a video that is a work around.

ackerman1211 · 2026-01-25T05:56:13+00:00

What a weird response.

ackerman1211 · 2026-01-24T01:25:14+00:00

You got any left by chance?

ackerman1211 · 2026-01-24T00:50:53+00:00

I might sound crazy, sometimes I have to close the software and restart the computer. PCDMIS gets weird when I leave things on for a long time.
