Hi.
Anyone who know the average life of this probe?
I want to replace our probe with a new one, but I need some figures to present for the management..
We have 3 CMM's all with LSP-X1HT probes and all 3 have been crashed fairly hard. Two were replaced due to one individual crashing them exceptionally hard (oil leaking out of one, inability to calibrate with the other). The replacements and the original (all crashed again, btw) have passed Hexagon's yearly calibrations with better-than-spec results. They're more robust than you think. Or at least ours are, all 3 have the dents and scrapes to prove it.
