Calibrating Multiple Tips

MrCMM
I have calibrated multiple tip angles to work together with the calibration sphere in the same position for all the tips. There is one tip angle (A90B180) that is out .005" in the Y axis from all the other tips. I've tried recalibrating them several times but I still get the same results. Does anyone have a solution for this? Thanks!

  • Tips in PC DMIS work off of a MASTER/SLAVE relationship

    That said..

    You need to qualify one tip angle as your MASTER and all subsequent tips & their angles as SLAVES

    To do this in PC DMIS:

    -Pick astubby/fat probe..people usually use 4X20 or something similar. We'll use 4X20 for this example. Qualify A0B0 of 4X20 by saying YES the sphere has moved. This makes A0B0 of your 4X20 your MASTER
    -Qualify all OTHER tip angles of your 4X20 by saying NO sphere has not moved. This makes these angles slaves to the master
    -Qualify all other tip angles of all other probe builds by saying NO sphere has not moved. This makes these tips & their angles slaves to the master

    If this doesn't solve your problem, check back & we'll dig further. You may have to edit some touchspeeds, play with your F5 settings (display absolute speeds)...or may have a flat on your ball and/or sphere
