I agree, and I would create a 3D line between the two cylinders to create a better lock on the X Axis. The symmetry has too much rotational drift because there isn't a true 6 degree of freedom lock.
Hello , i really loved your videos , i am learning cmm and your videos helped a lot, can you make an video on concentricity and perpendicularity where you have measure any perpendicularity on center axis of Diameter to another center axis of Diameter and also concentricity as well .
I really like your videos and am a CMM tech myself. I juggle with Accura, Micura, and the Duramax. Im hoping you might be able to know about a problem we are having with the Vast XXT head on the Duramax. Sometimes when checking a part the probe stalls and stops. It doesn't show it has wrecked ( the stop light stays green), it just stops. It only happens on the Duramax. Do you know what causes this and hopefully.....a fix?... Thanks in advance for your time and again for the great videos.
Hi, thanks for the comment. I have had issues with programs running correctly if the alignment is not “just right”. If I have a probe go off into space, or stop, I go in and erase the alignment and select the features for the alignment again. I hope this helps.
Hi! I am currently measuring a cylinder part, and confused on how to set up the alignment. One of the datum is a plane at the end of the cylinder, and another is the cylinder itself. What would I use for the spatial, planar, x, and y origin?
Hi, I would use the largest feature for the spatial, and choose a feature perpendicular to that for the planar rotation. You may need another feature to establish the “z” depending on the configuration of the part.
MR. Odell when you choose the origin how come you use just a symmetry if this is a line, so we need a Z value then it will make a unique point(origin). the Z value should come from the theoretical cylinder3 (horizontal cylinder). thanks for your hard work teaching for free.
How would you do that alignment without the two cylinders? Say you had a hollow rod and you wanted to check the straightness. No plane, no cylinders, just a hollow rod.
@@cncdude9680 Yes. I would use the axis of the cylinder for the spatial and a plane on the v-block for planar rotation. X,Y,Z origins shouldn’t matter much to check straightness or length.
@@RDeanOdell Thank you so much! I will give this a try when I return to work on Monday. You have no idea how much you have helped me and many others! Thank you for the work you do!
@@RDeanOdell So everything worked great on Monday when I used the v-block for the planar rotation, but today when I came in and tried to check an identical part using the same alignment, the part was flipped 180 deg. The first feature probed exactly where it should, then the probe went in the opposite direction it should. Any suggestions of what I may be doing wrong?
Mr. Odell, How were you able to get the probe to just sweep the arc? When I probe 3 points I still get it wanting to sweep a full circle! Thanks in advance!
@@user-hl9vw8vt7r I’ve worked extensively with PC-DMIS for years, and while it is a very good software, Calypso is so much more powerful, especially when it comes to large projects. But that’s my opinion, PC-DMIS might be better suited for you. I’ve also worked with MCOSMOS from Mitutoyo, U-Soft Solid and WM Quartis with 17 years of experience, so I know my way around.
i like your teaching style......
Great to hear. Thank you.
It would be nice if you could show complete tutorial for a lathe / Turn part with 3D model , with some flats / Slots , thank you!! Great video.
Learning form your valuable vidio keep posting ❤️❤️
Thank you for watching! I have more content coming soon.
I also think that setting Symmetry1 as a Z Origin is not an optimal choice, it should be Cylinder3.
I agree, and I would create a 3D line between the two cylinders to create a better lock on the X Axis. The symmetry has too much rotational drift because there isn't a true 6 degree of freedom lock.
Hi, I was just thinking, why would you use symmetry as a Z origin? I would use Cylinder3.
Excelent video. Thank you very much!!!

I was hoping for this as well.
You could use Star probe to make complete circles in case of big cylinder
Nice to know 👍
But you are navigating is in Calypso i too fast 🤔 but I'm still loving it

Dear sir your vedio was good👌👌 please explain 6 Degree of freedom how to arrest the calypao alignment
Let me see what I can do. What kind of parts are you inspecting?
MR. Odell when you choose the origin how come you use just a symmetry if this is a line, so we need a Z value then it will make a unique point(origin). the Z value should come from the theoretical cylinder3 (horizontal cylinder). thanks for your hard work teaching for free.
Sir please one demo ..for how can check profile of surface as well as profile of line ..on CMM
Hi sir i need one help, im using calypso 5.4 softwares, how to measure distance of two circle at lower point not at center point.
When do you use radial distance vs caliper distance?
I like caliper distance for just about everything that isn’t a GD&T specification.
Hi sir how to use envelope principal in Zeiss Cmm
How would you do that alignment without the two cylinders? Say you had a hollow rod and you wanted to check the straightness. No plane, no cylinders, just a hollow rod.
Great question! I would put the part in a V block and use the surfaces of the V block for alignment.
@@RDeanOdell For the planar rotation?
@@cncdude9680 Yes. I would use the axis of the cylinder for the spatial and a plane on the v-block for planar rotation. X,Y,Z origins shouldn’t matter much to check straightness or length.

Mr. Odell,
How were you able to get the probe to just sweep the arc? When I probe 3 points I still get it wanting to sweep a full circle! Thanks in advance!
Adust the start angle and the angle range to 180 so half a circle, start angle will show you where you want it. Hope this helps.
😊😊😊
Hello sir
How to calibrate disc stylis.
F11 on the keypad = circle macro
Did I not mention that in this video?
@@RDeanOdell one of the many things I have already learned from you in previous videos
Sir Can u please tell
What is 'rotation in space ' & 'Planar rotation'?
Rotation in space is for placing your Trihedron, use your top plane preferably. Planar rotation is to set the orientation of your primary origin.
U from sirr
Pc dmis is far better than calypso
I disagree strongly.
@@mcdoogle274 first work with Pc Dmis then Give feedback

I have worked with PCDMIS and it's atrocious. It's some of the worst programming software out there.
