SKE metrology systems are normally installed by factory-trained technicians who also provide operator training. The following information covers basic hardware installation if an installer is not available. Refer to “ On-Site Installation, Calibration and Training ” later in this section for more information on SKE installation and calibration services.
5.1 Planning the Placement of the System
HDV systems are normally placed directly on a concrete floor in a work area. Following are recommendations for planning the placement of the HDV system:
• Select a location where the temperature can be controlled to within 20°C ± 0.5°C (68°F ± 1°F), which is the calibration temperature of the system.
• Select a location that is free from oil fumes, dust, and debris. Contaminants can coat critical mechanical and optical parts, which require more frequent system maintenance.
• Ensure a grounded 2-phase electrical power outlet is located close to the system.
• Allow enough clearance around the machine as follows:
• Allow at least 200 millimeters (8 inches) to the rear for access, and 600 millimeters (24 inches) or more to the sides.
• The width required for maximum X-axis stage travel is 1330 millimeters (52.5 inches). Consider the longest parts to be measured or inspected, since large parts can overhang beyond right or left sides of the stage.
• Allow room for the staging of incoming and outgoing parts.
