Changing from Port 2 tip to Port 3 tip causes port 3 tip to hang off or be picked up to left of center. Probe head still functions til it takes a hit. Then error message appears about bad hit etc. This happens about every 50th to 60th probe change. Keeps snapping.3mm (point 3 mm x 10 mm length) tips while running a 16 part fixture. Yes I can raise probe and reset tip ( green arrow button) and hit redo; but, this program is to run auto after being started by operator(s). I have cleaned tip. port etc yet is till occurs frequently! This is while using Optiv 443Dual Z with PC-MIS 2017R2
Possibility that the cone piece( probe slide over it when storing on rack) is worn as machine is approximately 2 years old. Operators will not run enough parts in a given day to repeat this issue; unless I have run numerous parts prior to them using program. Presently, I am running 30 shot per OQ (X3) then subsequently 30 more shots (x3) for PQ. Each shot contain 4 cavities and 4 shots per fixture run. Only issue I have is with fixture and/or program and their frequent miss alignment of Port 3 pickup after storing different tip in port 2! Using Leitz_LSPX1C with LSPX1C_0_SH.
Yes probe files and rack are calibrated. Issue occurs after a daily calibration or a weekly calibration. Cal program is same for Daily vs. Weekly. Again, Cal program created by Hexagon prior to my hiring.
