Offset in CMM

Hi,

I am running our brand new CMM for the first time and I am seeing that in DCC mode the machine has an offset. I wrote a very simple program to do manual and then automated alignment. When machine goes into DC mode and tries measuring the first plane it misses the plane by ~6mm. If there is no crash the program continues and measures all three planes but with the offset. It is very easy to see because my planes are thin pads on big housing. I am also new to CMM and have no idea why this is happening. Any suggestions?​

  • Thanks for the replay. I think the probe is properly qualified. I did DCC+DCC, 24 hits probe alignment with the first manual touch. The Master is A0B0 orientation because it was used to touch the sphere. The machine took from there and calibrated for the other two orientations. The calibration report indicated perfect deviation.

    I don't understand what I am doing wrong.
