Wondering if someone can help me. I amusing a star probe to scan a cylinder with a linear open. The probe seems to intermittently "stutter" during the scan and reports an error for workpiece lost contact. Wondering if anyone has had this issue and has any idea what might cause it.
The other thing is it seems to happen more in the morning after being unused all night but by the afternoon the problem largely clears up. Wondering if it is possibly something mechanical.
I've seen odd 'stuttering' when the probe is shanking. Since it is all based upon the contact being on the ball, the length and force at ball contact, if the contact isn't the ball, then it really does some weird stuff.
