RFP1 calibration
FA10 calibration artefact
Data collected by RFP1 is in the same reference frame as data collected by the REVO-2 tactile probes. The FA10 artefact is used to calibrate
RFP1 and provides the link between RFP1 and the tactile reference frame.
The calibration routines are automatically controlled by UCCsuite and proceed as follows:
Locating the FA10 artefact using RSP2 and providing the tactile data for linking to RFP1
1. Fix the FA10 artefact onto the bed of the CMM as shown at the end of this section ('Fixing FA10 calibration artefact to CMM').
2. Run the routine in UCCsuite to locate the FA10 artefact using a calibrated RSP2 tool:
The software will prompt the user to position the RSP2 above the location peg on the pillar of the FA10 artefact
The remainder of the moves will be performed automatically
Care must be taken to ensure that there is enough space / machine volume around the FA10 artefact to reach all parts of the artefact
3. Points will be taken as follows:
On the location peg to determine height and initial location
On the pillar to determine orientation of the artefact
On the chequerboard target to determine position
Around the circumference of the phase-to-height (P2H) disk to determine position
On the P2H disc to determine plane height and axis
On the focus patch to determine height
