Abstract
Wide range of touch trigger probes applications for CNC machine tools created a rising demand to test their accuracy. In the paper, the comparison of probe’s errors characteristics’ determination methods will be investigated for two different touch trigger probes for CNC machine tools. Both of the tested probes were tested in the laboratory, using dedicated test set-up. Additionally, one probe was tested on a machine tool using as material master artifact and one probe was tested on a machine tool using the dedicated test set-up. The results of these comparisons will be presented and it will be shown that on-machine probes’ testing using a material master artifact does not enable to determine the accurate errors characteristic of the probe itself.
