Result Interpretation

CMM Dynamic Probe Deflection Compensation Calculator computes Probe tip deflection error in m using the defined engineering formula and the input values provided. Probe tip deflection error is expressed in m. No universal acceptance threshold is defined by this calculator.

Worked Example

Verified calculation

Given:

  • X-axis contact force = 0
  • Y-axis contact force = 0
  • Z-axis contact force = 1
  • Probe stiffness = 1000
  • Sampling time = 0.001
  • Probe mass = 0.01

Expected Result:

  • Probe tip deflection error = 0.001

Engineering Interpretation:

Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: Probe tip deflection error = 0.001 m.

The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from automatically validated test cases.

Formula / Method

probe tip deflection error = sqrt(pow(x-axis contact force, 2) + pow(y-axis contact force, 2) + pow(z-axis contact force, 2)) / probe stiffness
