Plane/ Line/ Point Alignment
Learn how to create a Plane/ Line/ Point alignment and how the part is constrained
Profile - Unequal Distribution
Learn how Calypso calculates a profile with unequal distribution
Profile - Bilateral Distribution
How does Calypso do profile with a bilateral distribution
CAD TRANSFORMATION
Learn how to use Calypso’s CAD Model Transformation and move the origin on the CAD model to the correct location.
Calypso’s Circular Pitch
Excerpt from the Calypso Handbook
CALYPSO determines the circular pitch for all features and outputs the results either to CALYPSO or according to DIN 3960.
Calypso - Blind Hole Depth
This is an excerpt from the Calypso Handbook
To measure the depth of a blind hole we must calculate the depth by using this process.
Calypso - Point Recall with Loop
This will create a wall thickness 360° around the part top and bottom 8 points each.

Form Datum - Calypso
What the Form Datum does is establish a FUNCTIONAL Datum Reference Frame coordinate system, similar to if you were setting up the primary, secondary, and tertiary datums on a functional checking gage. This is ONLY for a datum reference frame and does not modify how the base and secondary alignments evaluate their respective coordinate system. In the screen shot below, you can notice the different origin points are for a base alignment and datum reference frame.
