"I am measuring this Ring Gage Manually both the Height and the Width. When I move the probe in the Y direction, I get a good Deviation from Nominal. Then I try doing hits in the X Direction and it’s showing out half a mil. But if I turn the Ring Gage in the Y direction to measure the other half, it comes out good. I hope I explained this well enough lol. Pretty much my X direction is showing out but when I rotate it to the Y Direction, it shows up good." I tried changing Wrist Angles and its still showing a half mil deviation. I am in contact with Hexagon but just wanted to see if anybody has ran into this problem before. I have attached an image.
Tater, This Ring Gage has no CAD. Its a measurement tool used for our parts out on the floor. It has no Datum Scheme either. Manual would be the only way to measure it. Unless anybody can give me any better ideas.
You neither need a CAD or datum structure to create your own prgm to check this in DCC, also have the tips been qualified as per the designated way, master probe, sphere moved etc, end of shift and my weekend starts now, best of luck, plenty of help on here if you search
Assuming you're using a LSPX1 (or another canning head), in F10, select "fine manual probing".
If you're using a TTP, the length seems to be important, and you could have an important trilobed effect .
You could also check the guide way of the CMM.
What is the standard deviation of calibration (only if you use much more than 5 hits !!!!!!) ?
JEFMAN, I use 27 hits with 4 levels for our scanning probe. StdDEV is .001. So Calibration is ok. I did check the Temperature Scale for that Axis and it seems normal. would check marking fine manual probing do anything different parameter wise ?
