Tip Calibration Process

Smasherofprobes
Hello all, could you please verify that I am calibrating my tips properly! I recently calibrated my machine and my results seem offset in one axis. (Calibration sphere comes off the table after every calibration)

I start by selecting A0B0 only ( Say Yes, Sphere has moved) Calibrate it by itself

Then I Select all tips (Including A0B0) and say No, Sphere has not moved)

The second time I calibrate my tip set should I be including A0B0? Also, Do you guys have a separate probe file called something like "Master probe" with just A0B0? or do you calibrate it within the tip set.

I haven't been on a machine in many years and I'm trying to remember the correct way to do this.

Thanks and my apologies if this is a re-post.

  • Looks okay.

    Notice that when you say 'Yes sphere has moved', you get an extra line above your results which shows the location of the calibration sphere. Notice also that you X (0), Y(0) and Z(280) are identical for both the THEO and the MEAS values.

    This is what you want to see in the calibration results of your master probe-tip.

    All other probe-tip angles you would expect there to be some difference between MEAS and THEO.
