Chapter 3: Feature Measurements
•
Objective: Familiarize yourself with the screen layout and tools, and
learn to take feature measurements in Metrology mode.
Features
The FARO Gage Features drawer contains all the commands to measure the individual faces,
holes, edges, etc. of a part. After measuring the individual features, you can use the
Dimensions commands to calculate distances and angles between the existing Features. The
Features drawer is only available in METROLOGY mode.
Types of Features
There are two basic types of features in Gage software: 2D and 3D. 2D features are flat
features that require a base face or plane of projection. 3D features have some depth and do
not require a plane of projection.
