Datums are off inside programs (All out in same direction)

Hello all,

I seem to be running into a problem with my 2way and 4way checks inside my programs. All of a sudden 2 fixtures in a row are showing an offset on my 4way and 2way 0.5mm in the same direction.
For Example I pick up the tooling balls come back check 2 way and 4way and both fixtures show they are out 0.5 mm in same direction (Machine axis). Does this make any sense ? could it be a bent probe that could be causing this issue ? I'm not sure whats going on here. Disappointed

  • Well I put up another fixture this morning, 4way is out .4 in the same direction again.. about to pull my hair out (What I have left). When I started at the company I noticed the PH9 was misaligned to the machine (Was missing the Cal Sphere when trying to Calibrate) so I rotated it back square. Could this have something to do with the deviations I am seeing ? I am seeing deviations in the Machine X axis. We are getting ready for PPAP submissions and this issue needs to be resolved Disappointed
