Stylus trigger force adjustment
Stylus trigger force adjustment
Spring force within the probe causes the
stylus to sit in one unique position, and return to
this position following each stylus deflection.
Stylus trigger force is set by Renishaw. The user
should only adjust trigger force in special
circumstances e.g. excessive machine vibration
or insufficient force to support the stylus
weight.
To adjust trigger force, and turn the adjusting
screw anticlockwise to reduce force (more
sensitive) or clockwise to increase force
(less sensitive). A stop prevents damage, which
could be caused by overtightening the adjusting
screw.
