First day on the job = Serious mess HELP

I left my job for 3 months & they talked me into returning. While I was gone, they bought a new CMM. We originally ran PCDMIS 3.7MR2. They upgraded to PCDMIS 2023. They tried to run my 3.7 MR2 programs & were told they would not run; they were told to install PCDMIS 2015 & the programs would then run. The issue I am having is the old probe files had a RENISHAWPH10MQ head & the new CMM has a Hexagon probe head. When I create a new probe file with the Hexagon head & only add a A0,B0 angle the probe sometime takes all 9 points as it should, sometimes it takes 3 points they goes off into the X+, One time it went in in a circular motion & hit the surface plate. The probe is doing things that make absolutely zero sense. I know it's a long shot, but does anyone have any input??

  • You should have a probe designated as your master probe to use to start your probe qualification ( ie find your sphere ) then providing your results are good with that procedure you can carry on and continue the qualification of your other probes,normally you would use something around 4 x 30 stylus and ball as your master probe.
