[Ca...] Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 I need to qualify a disk probe with a compound angle. Does anyone have tips suggestions on how to do this? My first (and only) thought is to do it "the normal" way, and fixture a setting ring in a couple of sine plates.

[Ri...] Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Is this an XXT or regular VAST? No way you could use a T (if VAST) or L (if XXT) stylus system? I think the Sine Plate is going to be your best bet.

[Ca...] Posted June 29, 2020 Author Share Posted June 29, 2020 It's an XXT. The Sine Plate looks like it's going to work.... Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/8972-creating-disk-probe-with-compound-rotation-angle/#findComment-40736 Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Me...] Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 How did this work out for you? I currently have a Disk with Z- A0 B0 Been wondering if its possible to Qualify X+, X-, Y+, & Y- aswell.

I mean, technically the XXT does not support Disc probes, but the process of "getting one to work" in any orientation other than -Z is the same.

Creating disk probes for Back, Front, Left and Right is really straight forward. I'd suggest making a star probe with normal ruby probes that are the same length that your disks will be. It saves a TON of time fi they're the same length. Make a simple program that establishes an origin and size of a setting ring. Then just swap your rubies for disks, and using the same program check the ring again and adjust the probe geometry until the X, Y, Z and size match the rubies measurement, within whatever tolerance you're comfortable with. I don't really chase millionths. I hope this helps!

End of Year/Month maddness and all... lol Do you have to make a separate stylus for each Orientation(Front, Back, Left, Right)? Or is it possible to add the angle to my Exisiting Stylus. I have a Vast XXT... Based on a instruction sheet i have, Seems like id have to make a new one with All 5 Basic orientations already in it.
