Special Alignment - Offset Hole (Zeiss CMM Calypso)

[@nobbyassmann]

Excellent video. My recent Calypso basic training covered a lot, but this is new to me. Thanks!

[@victoryprogramming3833]

Glad it was helpful!

[@cncdude9680]

I just finished basic as well. I've been operating and programming cnc machines for about 5 years now but this calypso software is very challenging to me.

[@sureshjmks4328]

Sir, thanks for video...my doubt is what is purpose of location and orientation in cmm

[@chellanjames895]

Please tell what are the uses of rotate to origine line and rotate to same deviation..

[@rjwin419]

I have a hole defined in the feature window using polar nominal (174.289), when I create a TRU POSITION characteristic the angle shows the angle as (-84.289). How can I correct it.

[@anujjangra5476]

Sir, how can I add MMB condition in hole position and please make one video on detail of filters (e.g gauss...)

[@vusizw]

Can we use the 3d line between the two offset bore holes for planar rotation?

[@victoryprogramming3833]

Yes, as long as you know the basic angle you can do it that way.

[@jefilomeno]

Thanks for the video! I have a question. We have some castings that I need to check features on both sides. My datum is a thru bore and my clocking hole is also thru. Is it possible to have a second alignment in one program, so that all my characteristics results are in one document? If it is possible, would please do a video of that? I did this quite often on our old cmm, but I don’t know how to do it in Calypso. Please help!!!

[@victoryprogramming3833]

Hi Jonathan, Yes it is possible to create a secondary alignment similar to how the base alignment is set up. Can you please send me an email at [e-mail] to clarify what type of secondary alignment you are looking for? Based on your description, your part can be aligned in the Base Alignment. Thanks, Steven

Please make some videos on RPS & best fit alignment

[@haribhooplan650]

Sir nice video please make video for cad comparison

[@Murderin13]

I know its a longshot on getting a reply, but whats the point of doing this versus a normal alignment without worrying about the offset hole?

[@victoryprogramming3833]

Good question! Sometimes a datum feature like this is offset with basic dimensions, and the rest of the part features are dimensioned to the theoretical X or Y axis. In this case if we rotated to the hole with a normal alignment, the basic dimensions to the other holes would not match the drawing.

Sir what is CMM accuracy? Or any formula plz reply..

Sir in rotation by angle method, in which direction need to rotate wether clock Wise or anticlockwise and how to decide that one, pls explain

[@victoryprogramming3833]

Hi Veera, For rotation by angle, the alignment will rotate counterclockwise for a positive angle, and clockwise for a negative angle. You can visualize the effect by viewing the CAD with the rotation axis pointing toward you. Steven

[@michaelstrickland9970]

Can you relearn a feature in Calypso like you can pcdmis?

[@victoryprogramming3833]

Hi Michael, It is possible to scan "unknown" geometry with curve features. For regular features, I am not aware of a function in Calypso to "relearn" the actual geometry. You could simply copy the actual values into the nominal column. Have a great day, Steven

In Rotate by Angle option for 45 degree I,e X=95 & Y=95, both X and Y actual where same X=95.016 & Y=95.016, how do I know the actual X and Y values!

[@victoryprogramming3833]

Hi Gagan, You can report the actual X and Y values of the feature by checking the "X" and "Y" check boxes in the feature window. When the alignment is rotated by 45 to a feature, that feature will always report X and Y values the same. You can also create a secondary alignment if you need to report the X and Y values relative to other datums. Steven

@@victoryprogramming3833 Thank you.

[@OptimaPrecision]

Thank you!

[@massgass9131]

why not use a plane on the surface you are aligning to and use that for plannar

[@victoryprogramming3833]

That's a great point! The front surface could be used for the planar rotation as well. For the base alignment, that would be perfectly fine. However, the two large holes on this part are the functional datums, so we need to align to those to measure the true position of the other small holes.

[@massgass9131]

@@victoryprogramming3833 what if you created a -drf- for those positions?

[@victoryprogramming3833]

Yes you could create a datum reference frame or secondary alignment for the position of the small holes. The process of creating the offset alignment with the Special button would be the same way you do it in the base alignment window. The base alignment does not necessarily have to use datum features. It could be any combination of features that restrain the part in space. - Steven

Sir, can you show me base alignment for part that not have perpendicularity surface.such as manifold....please advise
