This pick-up is used at right angles to the direction of traverse.
Accordingly the skid is set at right angles to its normal position.
Figure 10: The right angle pickup
It is particular useful in grooves or slots where the lay of the
surface texture makes it unsuitable for measurement with a
standard or small bore pick-up. When used on cylindrical
workpieces it is important that the stylus and skid should be
equidistant from the crest (see figure 11), and that the work piece
is positioned so that the crest is parallel to the line of traverse.
