Measuring spheres

CYCLE997 permits correction of the zero offset after measurement of a sphere or of three
identically sized spheres on a common base (workpiece). Either paraxial measurement or
measurement at an angle can be selected.
Workpiece measurement: sphere
Result:
• Actual dimension: Actual position of center, diameter
• Deviation: Zero offset (for one sphere translation only, for three spheres also rotation in
1-40
space)
