Calibration programs

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Why does even the latest Calypso calibration still suck? Why is there no option like “Mark Used” in PC-DMIS? Is there any quick and easy way to create a calibration program instead of going through each feature to check which probe it uses? Even then, we still have to manually input the formula to check the sigma and the radius. Finally, is it possible to create a single combined program that calibrates all the styli used across all programs?

You can only make your program to calibrate selected probes - you can make program for every probe you have, which would be wise , to have all probes calibrated at same time.

There is no way to get list of probes used in all programs.

Unfortunately if you are using the RDS system, this macro isn't working as Calypso does not save the probe names in the program folder. It only uses a binary information so when you open the program it grabs a data from the master stylus database.

Just come up with some idea. So what you could do is to output the stylus data in the multiple output menu and then use either chat gpt or the excel macro to combine and create one table with list of all of your probes.

We run production and usually know what's being made day to day. All of our CMM programs are ran through autorun. We might run a number of over a 100 different CMM programs a day. That number can change day to day depending on customer orders. So, I created a stylus qualification program that qualifies all styli positions. for every program.

I copy it as many times as I have different customer part numbers to measure. Then I edit each copy to qualify only the stylus used in a specific program, renaming it accordingly. So if I know we are running programs A, B, C, D today. I can run stylus qualification programs A, B, C, D. Eliminating the waste of running the full qualification program.
