Retract speed

[[Ra...]]

Is it possible to control the retract speed after a measurement in Vast XT probe. Is this speed same as feature measuring speed or the moving speed? Because I have noticed vibration of stylus system after measuring a 4mm hole with a 1mm dia ruby tip and the retract direction is along x axis. Btw will this vibration change the reading of the past measurement or future ones.

Yes I think it is a feature speed, you can control it inside the measurement plan editor feature.

[[No...]]

In the measurement plan editor you can only control the approaching speed, not retract. Retract is always done with movement speed, so the only way is to modify the latter, but this is a global setting for the whole measurement plan, so everything else would slow down too.

I also noticed some vibration in certain situations, but I think this is normal, although I don't know why it happens. The CMM performs a standstill check and doesn't start to take measurements before the probe has come to rest. Vibrations AFTER the measurement don't matter. Only vibrations DURING a measurement (e.g. scanning) can have influence on the result.

Not 100% sure this will work, but you could try this. You can use a PCM command inside the feature in question.

setInspectionDrivingSpeed(30)

Would be interesting to know whether you can override the value set in the CNC start window with this. I doubt it, but please try and report here!

for the entire program does not have sense, but if is only for a section use the userfield.ini:

[Fieldnames]
u_speed


[u_speed]
name=DrivingSpeed
editMode=true
runMode=true
selectiveList=true
selectiveListValues=u_speed_valueList
editable=false
defaultValue=3

[u_speed_valueList]
1=10
2=20
3=30
4=40
5=60
6=80
7=100

setInspectionDrivingSpeed(getRecordHead("u_speed").asNumber)
