Testing a scanning Module for damage

Hi,

We are using scanning SM25-1 modules on our Global Adavantage 575 CMM's.

Are there any surefire methods for testing the modules to check to see if they are damaged.

Are there any tell tale signs that I can look out for that will help me identify a damaged scanning module?

Thanks!

  • So I see a max force of .15 and a trigger of .2 in your second window of settings for analogue probing.

    The trigger force specifically should never be set higher than your max force.



    Looking at the touch speeds also, I'd be curious to know if you calibrated at a 6 touch speed...you have different touch speeds in each of those windows.

    Within the programs, the calibration touch speeds are set at 2mm/sec. I dont wrote the programs but I am saying varying settings withing the programs.
    What affect does this have?
