Notes on scanning
High travel speed
Important!
When measuring at high travel speed and with low measuring forces
(F< 0.1N), the probe may lift off the workpiece for a short time. In
unfavorable cases, this may lead to incorrect measured values.
• Reduce the travel speed in case of low measuring forces.
Abrasion or material deposits
During scanning, the probe contacts the workpiece continuously. The
probe element glides along the surface of the workpiece. This may
cause abrasion and material deposits.
– Abrasion:
Material may be rubbed off the workpiece or probe element (e.g.
in case of sintered material) by the probe as it glides along the sur-
face of the workpiece during probing.
– Material deposits:
With certain materials (such as aluminum) material may be
removed from the workpiece and deposited on the probe element.
For this reason, probe elements should be checked regularly during all
scanning operations and replaced if necessary.
• Check the condition of the probe elements and clean them.
For information on how to remove aluminum deposits, please refer

page 9-6 .
• If the probe element is damaged, replace the stylus.
