Result Interpretation

CMM Probe Qualification Ball Diameter Bias Calculator computes Probe Sphere Diameter Bias in m using the defined engineering formula and the input values provided. Probe Sphere Diameter Bias is expressed in m. No universal acceptance threshold is defined by this calculator.

Worked Example

Verified calculation

Given:

  • Measured Sphere Diameter = 0.0100025
  • Certified Sphere Diameter = 0.01

Expected Result:

  • Probe Sphere Diameter Bias = 2.5E-6

Engineering Interpretation:

Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: Probe Sphere Diameter Bias = 2.5E-6 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.
