Good Morning. I am fairly new to CMM programming so please don't mind me if I can't explain things properly. So one of our programs require that I use a 90° angled tip so when the tip is rotated at A0B0 my tip is taking points in X/Y direction. My issue is when I am calibrating, the entire probe changes orientation on PCDmis where the angled tip is now pointing down to Z-minus which messes up calibration either by crashing into the sphere or taking points too far from the sphere. I was able to calibrate this tip before on the same machine back in December, but it was due so that's why I am calibrating it now. I do not remember how I was able to calibrate it before but now I just can't seem to get it to work. I tried deleting and remaking the tip but still gives me the same issue. Please any help is greatly appreciated.
Sorry for the very late update but thank you everyone for your help. Because of my other priorities at work I wasn't able to take care of this til end of last week. I was finally able to get this fixed by doing FRADDERS' suggestion. The reason it wasn't calibrating properly was because I was using the angled tip at the beginning of calibration to find the sphere.
