This is a practice exercise video solution
00:04
for this practice.
00:05
You want to go ahead and use any of the files
00:07
that you have that contain at least one set up.
00:10
We're gonna be taking a look at setting up a manual inspection in fusion 3 60.
00:15
Now,
00:15
this can be done from the manufacturer workspace and navigating to the inspection.
00:19
Tab
00:20
note that the inspection will be located inside of your
00:23
active setup in this case inside of my two.
00:27
Now this is where I want to create my inspection report inside of two.
00:31
So I'm gonna make sure that that does stay active.
00:34
There are many different ways in which we can create inspections in fusion 3 60.
00:38
Some of them are going to use probing to probe our work coordinate system.
00:42
Some will be using probing to probe geometry or surfaces.
00:45
But in this case, we're going to focus on creating a manual inspection.
00:49
Manual inspections can measure different types of geometry and to get started.
00:53
The first thing I'm gonna do is rotate my part slightly
00:56
and take a look at the inside diameter here.
00:59
Notice that it places a dimension and this dimension
01:02
is going to represent the diameter of the hole.
01:04
In this case, the ideal diameter,
01:06
we can put an upper and lower tolerance value.
01:09
In this case, based on our print, we'll put plus or minus 0.05.
01:13
We're gonna change the manual inspection name to large ID.
01:18
We're measuring the diameter and then I'm gonna hit plus to add a new inspection.
01:22
If we want to measure the distance between two holes, we can select a hole,
01:26
we can change the distance type to center to center distance.
01:30
And then we can select our second hole.
01:32
In this case, I'm gonna put Caliper
01:36
mount
01:37
and again for tolerance value, I'm gonna be using 0.01.
01:41
In this case instead of the default 0.004
01:45
we have a measure method in this case direct,
01:48
but we can also use maximum or minimum distance, gonna leave mine as direct for now,
01:54
you can continue to add additional dimensions for your manual inspection,
01:58
but we're gonna select, ok.
01:60
And just finish with those two.
02:02
Once we've created our manual inspections,
02:04
you can see there's a folder located inside of our
02:07
two set up. We have our large ID as well as our caliper mount.
02:11
We can select each one of these individually,
02:14
right click and record a manual inspection.
02:17
We can also do this at the top level of
02:19
the folder by right clicking and selecting record manual inspection.
02:23
It's important to note that if we do them individually,
02:26
we will have individual inspection results.
02:29
In this case notice at the very top,
02:31
the results folder will be a new inspection results.
02:33
Since we haven't recorded anything yet,
02:36
we're going to enter a value for the large ID, which by default should be 0.38.
02:41
If I say that we measured this at 0.35 we can see that it's within the tolerance value.
02:48
The deviation is 0.03
02:50
and the error is 00.
02:53
If we hit, enter,
02:55
we're gonna record that and move on to the next value.
02:58
In this case, a distance to distance value.
03:02
In this case, I'm gonna measure 3.02.
03:08
Now this is outside of the spec,
03:09
you can see that the arrow is telling us the measured state is above our limit.
03:14
That's OK. I'm gonna hit enter to record that value.
03:18
What we've done is we've now created a results folder
03:20
for inspection results with the large ID and the caliber mount
03:25
we can add to these at any point in time,
03:28
but this shows us the results inside of fusion 3 60
03:32
how they relate to our part.
03:34
The orange values will be outside of tolerance and the green values will be inside.
03:38
So our caliper mount is outside of our tolerance range,
03:41
but the large ID is inside because it's displayed in green.
03:46
This can often times be a little bit difficult to see depending on the geometry,
03:50
potentially the fixtures or other geometry.
03:52
That might be in its way,
03:54
we can always go back and add additional values
03:57
by right clicking and going into our record manual inspection
04:02
for the large ID. I'm gonna record a value that is 0.45.
04:08
I'm gonna hit enter and for the caliper mount, I'm gonna do 3.01 and hit enter.
04:13
Notice that these automatically got added to a new set of results.
04:17
If you want to inspect multiple results on the
04:20
same part or inside of the same inspection results,
04:24
one thing you can do is you can right
04:25
click and when you're recording those manual results,
04:28
instead of going to a new inspection results, simply pick a previous one.
04:32
In this case, we'll go ahead and add 0.38 and 3.01 once more and hit. Enter,
04:41
notice that in our results folder,
04:43
we now have a large ID listed twice and the caliper mount listed twice.
04:49
Once you've recorded all the results from
04:50
your preproduction or your production runs,
04:53
you can right click,
04:54
you can show the results and you can also generate an inspection report.
04:58
I'm gonna select generate inspection report. I'm gonna save it just to the cloud.
05:02
But note you can also save it locally as a PDF.
05:06
Once it gets generated, it will open up in a web browser.
05:09
And we can take a look at the results
05:14
inside of our inspection results.
05:16
We can see here that we measured the large ID twice.
05:19
And the type as a whole, we measured the caliper mount center to center twice.
05:24
We can also see the values and the deviations as well as any that are out of tolerance.
05:29
So this can be extremely helpful when you're
05:31
generating your first or your preproduction parts.
05:35
And you want
05:36
the dimensions,
05:37
make sure that you understand how these documents can be created in fusion 3
05:47
Once you're done,
05:47
make sure that any changes have been saved to your design and then you can move on.
