Overview of the Agilent 5530
The Agilent 5530 Dynamic Calibrator is a laser system used to ensure the
accuracy of a machine’s motion and positioning. Controlled through your
PC (with the Microsoft® Windows operating system installed), the system
is able to collect and analyze measurement data for a number of
measurements. The Agilent 10747F Metrology Software was designed
specifically for machine calibration so you do not need prior PC
experience — and complete online help is provided.
After you have made a machine measurement using the Agilent 5530, the
system generates plots and reports, including environmental and machine
data. You can save the data in a format compatible with popular electronic
spreadsheets (such as Microsoft® Excel) for custom data analysis. You can
also store and recall measurement setups and default settings so you do
not need to reenter them for each measurement.
The Agilent 5530 allows you to select resolution and error limits and
choose the number of standard deviations shown on plots. It also offers
higher resolution, including an internal resolution extension feature and
optional high-resolution optics. In addition, the CNC error compensation
table can be automatically calculated and printed.
The Agilent 5530 enables you to calibrate your tools to the following
industrial standards:
• NMTBA without offset
•NMTBA
• ANSI B5.54/B5.57
• VDI 3441/2617
• GB 10931-89
• GB/T 17421.2-2000
