At our shop, our boss loves to think that every task can be completed in five minutes, can you you really calibrate a CMM in 5 minutes?

Our Quality Manager, Ethan, goes through the whole process of how Kremin calibrates their CMM to ensure they get the best measurements possible, utilizing the Software PC-DMIS CAD++ We use a Keyence XM Series CMM system in our shop.

This is how to qualify probes, not calibrate the cmm lmao.

I calibrate cmms and let me tell ya it takes longer than 30 minutes for an actual calibration. also are you not able to select all the probes to be calibrated at the same time? I work on Mitutoyo machines and I’m able to select all the probes I have built in my part program and calibrate them all at once.

Does Kermin use any laser probes with their CMM?

How do you do looping? Where is looping in the program? Measuring multiple parts in a row.

Five minutes to calibrate a CMM? Yeah, that's a good one.
