Disk Probe

I need to measure the very top of a pointy, sharp edge in the +Z direction. Can I use a disk probe to do this? Or can you only measure around the diameter of a disk probe?

Thanks in advance.

  • You must qualify the same stylus twice. You can use QualifyTool to calibrate the disc diameter & CALPLA to calibrate the bottom face.

    The reason is, the deflection for the disc probe diameter is zero in Z & deflection for the disc probe face is zero in X & Y.

    I've never done it that way, but I'm told it works.


    Thanks, Quindos Team. I plan to purchase one and give it a try.
