Description of the CMM

Clamping technique
Laterally oriented styli are inserted in grooved discs and clamped by
the vertically oriented stylus. The end stylus is screwed into the probe
extension or directly into the adapter plate. In this way the laterally
oriented styli are clamped.
The probe components for the clamping technique and assembly
instructions are included in the probe kit.
Advantages and disad-
vantages of the clamp-
ing technique
Advantages:
high flexibility
low weight.
Disadvantages:
high measuring inaccuracy caused by poorly definable clamping
joints.
with VAST: loss of rigidity at each joint.
Storage of probes
Once the probe has been assembled, it can be used as long as
required. It does not need to be disassembled. Careful handling is
necessary. This applies particularly to the adapter plate and probe ele-
ments.
Probe protection The probe must be protected against the following influences:
Force of impact and other external mechanical infuences
Dust and dirt.
A probe rack is recommended for storage if you measure every day
with the CMM. When no measurements are carried out with the
CMM over a longer period, the probes should be stored in a place
protected against environmental influences:
