Measuring the Plane Displacement (Plane Scan-
ning Measurement)
Moving the ball of the probe while maintaining contact with the surface of the workpiece obtains mul-
tiple measurements. Based on the acquired data, the maximum, minimum, and displacement values
(maximum – minimum = displacement) can be measured.
As an example, the procedure for measuring the displacement of a1 (maximum value), a2 (minimum
value), and A (1 mm), shown below, is explained.
A (1 mm)
a2
a1
ABS reference
Measure within a range of about 1 mm from the starting point. Measuring with a wider range may increase mea-
surement errors.
