Hi all,
So we have now got a CNC machining capability in house
applause
I need to measure the produced items while we set up the programming to ensure we are drilling things in the right place (i.e. offsets etc)....
The problem then - We drill a blind, none through hole into a round length of acrylic rod. the hole is either 1/2 or 1/3 the thickness of the rod, depending on product.
I need to measure, with very limited facilities and equipment the centre of the hole to the edge of the round bar we are drilling to ensure we are in the middle of the diameter - I would love to CMM measure it, but we don't have one. I have some digital calipers, some steel rules and a CNC Milling machine.
Any ideas....
