Probing with VAST
The probe must be moved back counter to the probing direction after
each single point probing.
Measurement in static
status
The measuring data are not accepted immediately after probing.
Instead, they are initially polled following a damping period of approx.
one second. I.e. the actual measurement occurs only after the
machine reaches a static state.
Multipoint measurement
Multipoint measurement is only possible with the VAST probe system.
During multipoint measurement, the probe is moved perpendicular to
the probing direction.
The probing axis runs parallel to the workpiece surface. During mea-
surement, the probe element constantly remains in contact with the
workpiece surface. The measuring force remains effective until prob-
ing is completed.
A Lowering the probe and probing the workpiece; with the left joystick.
B - D Move the probe over the workpiece with the right joystick. The
position in the z direction remains unchanged.
