(2) Before power-on instrument:

Cleaning of base by using Acetone and Iso-propyl alcohol.

Cleaning of slide on x axis.
Cleaning of y axis slide ways weekly.
Air supply valve on.
Make sure that the pressure gauge shows 4 bar reading in it.

(3) Get start with CMM instrument:

Switch on pc
Switch on individual slides ensure free movement of probe.

Open
icon from desktop.
It will show window as follows,

Fig.: 01
click on OK and it will show window as follows

Fig.: 02

Now, move measuring probe to the home position. After getting probe position
it will shows window automatically as follows, motion of probe is such that it
moves in all the three directions.

Fig.: 03

Now, the slide sensors are activated and the measurement is allowed to start.

Open icon
It will show the following windows.

(4) Part manager editing:

Part manager gives facility to classified same kind of parts in on rack.
Some basic editing tools given as below,
Create a new part: click on

icon to create new part.

Change the part number: click on

number
Delete part number: click on

to change previous created part

to delete part number.

Exit part manager window: click on

to exit part manager window.

(5) Inner ring dimension measurement:

Repeat (2) and (3) point.
Set the inner ring on the base table of the CMM
Open CMM learn mode by click
It will show following window.

Close startup wizard.
click

icon and select probe from available probe list shown as below,

Fig.: 06
Measure and Align plane:

Click on
icon available in Geopak CMM learn mode window, It will show
window as follow.

Fig.: 07

No of points to be taken by measuring probe can be changed from upper shown

window. Click on OK
Measure the base plane on which the part is placed by makes contact of the
measuring probe to the plane. We want to take reference of that measuring
plane for particular part.
Click on
icon after measure plane to make the plane align, it will show
following windows.

Fig.: 08
Click on OK, command will make the measured plane as align plane,
Now we can take measurement of the dimension of the inner ring.
Cone angle measurement:
7

Click on
icon.
It will open window as follow,

Fig.: 09

Click on OK after check and ensure that 8 no. of points should be taken.
Measure all 8 points with the help of measuring probe.

Click on
(last element) available in CMM learn mode window to divide the
measured angle of cone half. Type value of measured angle to the below window
which highlight after click on that icon.

Fig.: 10

Click on OK in upper window.

set and position the inner ring:

8

Place inner ring on the base in such a way that the big face of the inner ring
should touch base plane.

Track size measurement:

After measure the cone element, track size of the inner ring can be measured by

click on
(circle element).
Set the parameters as shown below,

Fig.: 11
Name can be changed in upper shown window. Click on OK. It will show the
window as follow,

Fig.: 12

Click on OK. And track size is been updated.

 ID DIAMETER MEASUREMENT:

CLICK ON

Make contact of the measuring probe to the id surface. And field of result will
updated with final 4th contact of the measuring probe to the id surface.

Width measurement:

Click on

(width element).it will show window as follows.

Fig.: 15
Select Repeat command on if we want to measure width of more than one inner
ring.

(6) OUTER RING DIMENSION MEASUREMENT:

No of points to be taken by measuring probe can be changed from upper shown

window. Click on OK
Measure the base plane on which the part is placed by makes contact of the
measuring probe to the plane. We want to take reference of that measuring
plane for particular part.
Click on
icon after measure plane to make the plane align, it will show
following windows.

Fig.: 19

Click on OK, command will make the measured plane as align plane,
Now we can take measurement of the dimension of the inner ring.

13

 set and position the outer ring:

Place inner ring on the base in such a way that the big face of the inner ring
should touch base plane.
Cone angle measurement:

Click on
icon.
It will open window as follow,
