Cylinder styli calibration

[[At...]]

Hello everyone!

I am currently using an O-Inspect 322 with an XXT VAST probe head and Calypso 2021. I would like to know if it is possible to calibrate a cylindrical stylus on this machine? If yes, how should it be done? If not, what are the requirements or prerequisites to make it possible?

Thank you very much!

im pretty sure you cant do automatic calibration for this styli 

for disc i use the method on the link bellow, im pretty sure you should use this kind of method.

if anyone know a automatic method please share.

 

If the cylinder styli have the smi spherical point u can normally calibrate as a normal sphere styli.

Nice video Luis Oliveira.

I use a similar approach with a setup stylus of the same length as my Disk Stylus.

The difference is, I use the Reference Sphere (RS) instead of a Ring Gage.

Based on the thickness of the Disk, I scan three circles as a sphere on the RS.

This allows me to dial in all three axis locations of the Disk and the measured Sphere Size then I scan a circle for the Sphere Diameter based on the as found location of the RS for Size. (I don't use disks with a ball embedded and I don't use push or pull measurements).

I can qualify any articulation that I need based on the Set Up Stylus articulations.

Fine tuning the Axis coordinates and size is manually calculated and entered into the Stylus System Management dialog box.

Note: I do not use CNC qualification. I use a CMM program that runs through measurements and calculate the changes from the results.

I typically re-qualify about every 15 days.

I have been using this method for almost two years now. There is a post in the forum of this concept that I created.
