Rotary axis for wear testing styli
Styli, like manufacturing tools, are subject to natural wear and tear. Probing or scanning can damage or contaminate the measuring elements (e.g. the balls). This wear can adversely affect the measuring accuracy. Therefore, it is recommended to check the measuring elements regularly. The signs of wear are usually not visible to the naked eye. Therefore, at least a magnifying glass, or better a microscope should be used for inspection. For inspection under a microscope, the use of a rotary axis is recommended in order to be able to inspect the complete circumference. Since such rotary axes are usually expensive and equipped with many functionalities that are not required for pure stylus testing, the functionalities of this rotary unit are limited to the most necessary.
