What is a PPG file?

PPG files mostly belong to Mitutoyo LH-600P / PC-DMIS. PPG files are used to store and manage measurement data from precision instruments.
They capture device-specific settings and calibration details used in quality control environments. For example, one type of PPG file comes from the Mitutoyo LH-600P projector gauge and holds data from profilometer measurements. Another type is used by PC-DMIS software, a program for coordinate measuring machines (CMM), to save measurement parameters and inspection settings.

  • Used in projector-based measurements (Mitutoyo profilometer data)
  • Employed by CMM programs (PC-DMIS) for manufacturing inspection
  • Stores calibration settings and detailed measurement values

FilExt.com tip: These files are proprietary and must be viewed or edited with the corresponding software. For more details check out Mitutoyo or Hexagon.
