ZEISS adapter plates

Non-ZEISS adapter plates

Only original ZEISS adapter plates canensure that the full potential of the CMM
is used and its measurement uncertainty
maintained. Apart from the high quality,
which ZEISS closely and continuously
monitors, further key reasons for using
certified ZEISS adapter plates include
improved quality of measurement results,
higher productivity, and increased systemstability.

The adapter plate is a crucial part inyour measuring s­ etup as it connects thestylus system to your probe head. L­ owgrade materials and poor production
quality result in unstable or incorrect
data transmission. In addition, nonZEISS adapter plates are not equippedwith an ID chip that enables you toprevent operating errors and incorrect
measurements.

ZEISS REACH CFX
Carbon fiber extensionsNon-ZEISS extensions

The overall influence of the extension on themeasuring uncertainty is mainly determinedby three factors: weight, thermal expansion,and static stiffness. ZEISS uses only highquality carbon fiber, ensuring the best possible
results for all three factors.

Using unsuitable materials such astitanium or aluminum has a negative
impact on the three factors that
determine the influence of the extension
on the measuring uncertainty. This evenapplies to ordinary carbon fiber tubes thatare not made for metrology applications.

ZEISS styli

Non-ZEISS styli

Quality of styli is determined by
the highest possible stylus rigidity,
the geometric accuracy of thestylus element, and the maximum
roundness of the measuring probe
sphere. The strict ZEISS processcontrols in manufacturing guarantee
styli quality of the highest order.
Thanks to the latest production
technologies, our styli are particularly
precise, stable, and durable.

Low-quality styli with faulty connection
design and form deviations of the stylus
tip – due to low material quality orpinned connections between shaft andball tip – have a significant influence on
the accuracy of the measurement. This
results in measurement errors and thus
an increase in scrap rates. The service
life of the styli is also considerably
reduced if the manufacturing processes
are not state of the art.
