The process of measuring on an Equator involves defining a series of gauge points on the component
surface. Periodic calibration of a master part on a CMM establishes datum values for each gauge point. The
same gauge points on the same master part are measured on Equator (known as ‘mastering’) to establish
a correlation with the certified CMM. Subsequently, a regular ‘re-mastering’ process is used to account for
changing environmental conditions.
Size and position measurements made immediately following re-mastering will have a comparison uncertainty
of ±0.002 mm relative to the certified measurements of the master part. This specification applies where each
part is fixtured to within 1 mm relative to the master part.
*Customers should complete their own risk assessment on delivery of the machine to define their own PPE
requirements.

Equator 500 machine labels
A warning label on each of the three support arms for the constraint mechanism warns
not to lift the machine by the support arms. The Equator 500 should only be lifted using
mechanical means.
* Maximum scanning speed cannot be guaranteed as it is affected by feature type/size/finish and stylus
configurations.
