Can anyone help shed some light and/or correct me if I'm making a mistake somewhere in the process.
I have a 2014 Haas VF2 with Renishaw probe. The issue I'm having is the disparity in sizes when I measure a part with calipers (quality Mitutoyo) and when I use the probe to measure the size of the same part. My process (with the probe) is probe both sides of a part and calculate the size by subtracting one number from the other. The probe seems to measure the part with a 0.35mm - 0.40mm error. I've also done this with precision parts (to eliminate caliper error) with known sizes--and the probe comes out with this size disparity as well.
I've run the probe calibration cycles as well as physically balanced the ruby stylus tip (0.05mm+/-)... Am I doing something wrong or is there something wrong with my machine/probe???
