It is important to properly calibrate the tip of your probe and make sure it is accurate within your desired tolerances.

Calibrating the tip of the probe is accomplished by moving the tip around a static point.

Select TwinTrack➔Calibrate/Validate Probe Tip to start the tool calibration.

In this case, because we are using the Creaform HandyProbe, you can calibrate the probe using Creaform VXElements software and validate it using RoboDK.

To validate the tip of your probe you simply need to move around a static point and RoboDK will display the accuracy.

Note: Some probes such as the Creaform HandPROBE or the Leica T-Probe may provide a virtual probe at the tip of the tool and it is not necessary to calibrate them.

Tip: You can select TwinTrack➔Export CSV Measurements to record measurements.
