Compensation Procedure for 1mm Ball Probes
Overview
Due to the delicate nature of the 1mm ball probes, FARO® recommends using the Sphere Compensation Method to compensate these probes. Using the Hole/Cone Compensation Method can often lead to flexing (producing inaccurate results) or even breakage of the probe shaft.
For more information on the Sphere Compensation Method, see “Sphere Compensation” in the User Manual for your model Arm.
