[Me...] Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 Is there a way to tell what type of head you have other than the tribal knowledge of Vast or XXT? I've heard that some of the older machines gave a choice of active & passive but I need to know because my new employer has SOOOO many different machines...

[To...] Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 Here are 2 common sensors. Easy way to identify. If it is big, then it's probably an active sensor. If it is long and slender, it's probably passive. Also, here's a link to the Zeiss website that shows the various sensors. If your machines are really old, you might not see them here. https://www.zeiss.com/metrology/product ... probe.htmlVAST-XXT Passive.jpgVAST-XT Gold _Active.jpg Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/12992-active-or-passive-head/#findComment-65774 Share on other sites More sharing options...
