1
Where the RP3 is to be used in the probe’s Z axis, a five-faced stylus is available to order from the Renishaw Online store at www.renishaw.com/shop.
2
Test conditions: Stylus length: 22 mm (0.87 in)
Stylus velocity: 36 mm/min (1.42 in/min)
3
Repeatability performance is not specified in the arm rotational axis. Refer to page 2, “HPPA dimensions”, to identify this axis.
4
Trigger force, which is critical in some applications, is the force exerted on the stylus by the tool when the probe triggers. The maximum force applied will occur after the
trigger point (overtravel). The force value depends on related variables including measuring speed and machine deceleration.
5
These are the factory settings; manual adjustment is not possible.
