3. SETTING UP
3.2 Measurement Setup
Check whether the contact point and the worktable are clamped firmly.
Wipe off the dust and oil stuck on the worktable top with a lint-free cloth or paper.
When performing measurement turn on the power to this instrument approximately one
hour before starting measurement. This is because thermal stabilization needs to be done
so that the temperature around this instrument becomes constant.
When performing measurement that requires a high accuracy, thermal stabilization also
needs to be done, even if the ambient temperature is constant, in the following cases:
A workpiece and the spindle were wiped out with thinner, etc.
A workpiece and the spindle were touched by hand.
Also, exercise care so as not to blow the operator’s breath directly over a workpiece which
has such a small thermal capacity that it will expand even by slight heat.
IMORTANT
The temperature accuracy of this instrument is guaranteed within the range of 20 ± 1
°C. If
measurement that requires a high accuracy is performed at a room temperature other than
specified, it is recommended that a workpiece be measured in comparison with a gauge
block or the master workpiece with the same size.
To measure with high precision, we recommend you to carry out a zero validation or a zero
set for every measuring.
When measuring some parts on a workpiece, measure them sequentially while moving the
workpiece from the front to the rear or from the rear to the front (using globes, tweezers,
bamboo spatula, etc., so that heat will not transfer to the workpiece).
Read out the measurement value after the WORK indicator lights up and the value
becomes stable.
