We recently got a brand new second CMM and are having issue with any of our iterative alignment programs working on it.
Once we complete the iterative alignment and hit ok to run the alignment in DCC it inverts the alignemnt. We have tried probing multiple times with multiple different operators and programmers and can not get the new CMM to correctly do any iterative alignment. It does not appear to be operator error. We have no issue getting the part programs to run on our old CMM.
Here's some info on one of the part programs:
The iterative alignment takes 3 points on the Y- plane of the part to level, two points on the X+ plane of the part to rotate, and finally one point on the Z+ plane of the part for origin.
What could be causing this issue? Thanks in advance for your answer.
