Stylus selection
The TP7M is high accuracy probe specifi cally designed to maintain a high level of
accuracy and reliability across a wide spectrum of applications. For best performance,
the guidelines given should be followed:
Do not:
● use more than 50 mm of M3 or M2 styli, or accessories.
● use M2 styli within 30 mm of the probe mounting face or probe axis.
● use the M4 / M2 (SA5) adaptor, use the M4 / M3 and the M3 / M2 adaptors
instead.
● do not use stylus knuckle joints.
Do:
● use the longest possible M4 stylus extensions or M4 / M3 adaptor extensions to
achieve a required stylus length.
● follow the guidelines in section 5 of the TP7M user’s guide (Renishaw part
number H-1000-5010) for stylus selection
● use M3 and M4 styli wherever possible to maximise the stiffness of the stylus
confi guration, however, M2 styli can be used if necessary for workpiece access.
● tighten up styli adequately using the stylus tools provided.
● ensure stylus ball is kept clean at all times by using distilled water or a proprietary
cleaning fl uid.
