This is the first of two major releases scheduled for PC-DMIS in 2018, with continued service pack updates to ensure maximum reliability of the platform.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>PC-DMIS 2018 R1 allows users to easily convert AutoFeatures to points or quickly use the measured hits for new Constructions and Dimensions, available for Plane, Circle, and Cylinder AutoFeatures. By converting each hit to a vector point, <strong>Optimize Path can be used to enhance the order of point measurement, reducing the number of probe tip changes and overall measurement time.<\/strong> New support for Q-DAS Traces enables easier analysis of PC-DMIS data. The new QuickSet control allows users to use both QuickFeature and GD&amp;T Selection and still have the ability to modify measurement strategies.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWith PC-DMIS 2018 R1, we <\/em>fulfil<em> our commitment to add the most highly-requested items from the user \u2018Idea Center\u2019,\u201d<\/em> states Ken Woodbine, Product Line Manager for Metrology Software at Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence. <em>\u201cThese include the graphical point manipulation feature<\/em>,<em> and the \u2018push to points\u2019 AutoFeature functionality. We also introduce seamless integration with the industry-standard Q-DAS software so key process parameters affecting quality can be easily identified and tracked. Additionally, we focus on <\/em>optimising<em> key elements of the measurement routine creation workflow, including front and <\/em>centre<em> visual access to key measurement strategy parameters with our new QuickSet widget technology.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Enhanced speed of QuickFeature measurement enables users to create multiple circles and cylinders with just one click, optimised for bolt hole patterns or whenever surfaces contain multiple features of the same size and shape. The latest edition also introduces improved Flush and Gap AutoFeature workflow for point cloud inspection. This improved workflow makes it even faster to extract multiple Flush and Gap AutoFeatures from an existing cloud of points object, most helpful when inspecting sheet metal seams. INSPECT has also been improved to include CAD and LIVE views from PC-DMIS and the ability to create Playlists including one or more routines to be executed a specified number of times.<\/p>\n<p>Other notable improvements within PC-DMIS include a new CAD Rotation Widget for resizable one-click CAD rotation, Added (M) for Coaxiality\/Concentricity, Leica Absolute Scanner LAS laser scanner support, improved 4K monitor support, improved QuickFeature laser support, Datakit 2017.3 implementation, user interface refresh, and improved tracker user experience.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, please visit <a href=\"http:\/\/hexagonmi.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">http:\/\/hexagonmi.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence launched PC-DMIS 2018 R1, the latest edition of the world\u2019s most popular measurement software.
