Hi All

I'm wondering about probing, maybe someone can shed light;

I want to make a touch probe, and looking at the classic Renishaw tripod
style, an obvious limitation is the lobing error.
Is this appreciable (<5um?) or is it dwarfed by taper-mounting and spindle
error?

So I'm wondering why M19 Pxx isn't used, to always turn the probe towards
the most sensitive direction?  Or is it? This could also negate any spindle
related error when touching off on opposite sides.

Alternatively, I could also make a very sensitive one-direction-probe and
always use M19 Pxx when touching off, much as one does with a lever dial
indicator.
(and have a separate Z probe)

Roland

PS, I don't have a M19-able spindle or probe yet, so I might be off in my
assessment..
