To adjust your measurements for comparing a scale model of a part to a full-size CAD model:
- Click Measure tab > Current panel > Parameters.
- In the
Measure Parameters dialog, select the
Measured Data Scaling tab.
Note: Scaling factors are available only when creating inspections for CNC and Manual machines.
To compensate for comparing a scaled part to a full-size CAD model:
- Select a ratio by which you want to scale measurements. For example:
- If you do not want to scale your measurements, select
1 : 1 (this option is selected by default).
- If you are comparing a half-size part with a full-size CAD model, select
1 : 2.
- If you are comparing a full-size part with a half-size CAD model, select the bottom option and enter a ratio of
2 : 1.
- Click
OK to save your changes.
If you select a
Scale Factor other than
1 : 1, it is displayed in the PowerInspect DRO and the
Co-ordinates dialog.
