Yearly calibration tech was just in and needed to use a "service" probe, a longer probe for extra reach in their calibrations.
Now we're having issues qualifying the probes after running in house calibration.
First time only the master was checking small, so we re-ran calibration.
Now all the probes are checking the Ø of the sphere .0002"-.0004" small.
We answered Yes to 1st probe, No to the rest for the has the sphere moved question.
We have reset to theoretical box checked.
STD Dev results are looking good.
Shouldn't answering yes to has the sphere moved and resetting theo's for the master probe override any old info?
We had this issue on both CMMS.
Yes, correct tool was used.
The last time the sphere got sent out to be checked there was an extra riser added to it. We were using a new place to check it, I assume they added it for their needs.
We take the 1st hit manually so it shouldn't make any difference for our calibration, right?
location no but if you told it a different size then yes. verify the size is correct for your calibration routine. every little micron counts... they sometimes create their own tool file to use for their volumetric calibration tests.
you should always calibrate all your tips after the yearly volumetric calibrations.
