Profiling comparison with point cloud

Good evening everyone,

To your knowledge, is SLDWKS able to compare a theoretical profile with a point cloud (txt file) generated by a measuring machine (Mitutoyo QSpack)?

Thank you for your help

It is possible to generate a curve from a point file.
From here, you can overlay this curve and your theoretical profile.

If you want more advanced measurement functions, unless you go through a macro, that's not the purpose of SW.

Hello

I'll look in that direction. Indeed, the comparison of a theoretical profile with a curve is enough for me.

Thank you
