Custom Canned Cycles for Automatic Feature Measurement

Introduction

From version 3.6 are present some "Non-Dmis" commands that allow to perform automatic measurement of features following a geometrical path instead being driven by regular PTMEAS/ commands.
The features whom those news cycles applies are:

  • Circle
  • Cylinder
  • Planes

Activating the cycles

The automatic cycles can be set and activated by the measuring panel.
Opening one of the available features, a new icon is present, and this will show a dialog to define the different cycles.

  • Non- Dmis automatic cycle for Measurng cycles

  • Parameters for Auto Cycle

Circle and Cylinders

For circles and cylinders features are available the following new automatic cycles:
