About MCG

MCG systemThe probe's stylus slots into the end of what is, in effect, a reference "ball" bar. The probe carries the bar with it around a spherical path, and radial readings are taken at different positions. The range of these readings indicates the volumetric measuring performance of the CMM. Repetition of a sequence of readings checks the system for repeatability.

Volumetric measuring performance is the maximum error between any two points in any plane, over any distance within the full measuring volume.

Special calibrated stylus can be used with TP1, TP2, TP20, TP6(A), with suitable adaptors.
