CMM
data lets you program header notes for a measurement's applicable balloon reference so that
CMM Data Import can automatically identify it. This eliminates the need to manually search
for matching CMM results. It is recommended that you automate CMM Data
Import.
You must enclose PPAP/FAI identification information between square brackets [ ]
as a note before the measurement results. (You can also use the character you defined in
the
CMM Template Editor
as
a
blueprint identification
marker.)
For
example:
The square brackets can contain four types of comma-delimited
information:
[ITEM ID,AXIS,MEASUREMENT NOTE,SPECIFICATION NOTE]
For example:
[ITEM 12,TP,AT 18.0 DIM. (ITEM 1),TP05.m|Am|2 PLACES]
| Location |
Description |
| 1 |
Identifies the item (balloon) number from the drawing.
You must identify this with the word "item" (such as Item 12), or the word you defined in
Text Markers
settings as blueprint identification markers. |
| 2 |
Identifies the axis to which the item number relates
(TP). This location is optional, but only if
there is one axis in the CMM report for that measurement (as shown
above). |
| 3 |
(Optional.) Identifies notes to include in the report
for the measurement results (AT 18.0 DIM.
(ITEM
1)). |
| 4 |
(Optional.) Identifies notes to include regarding the
specification and GD&T feature control frames. |
The simplest format is to identify the item number and not have any specification or
measurement notes to add. This format without an axis identification can only be used if
there is only one axis reported. For example:
Resulting PPAP:
When there is more than one axis reported, you must identify the axis in
the second location. For example:
Resulting PPAP:
If you report three items and you do not include any specification or
measurement notes, give each item identification its own line. For example:
Resulting PPAP:
