API vPROBE
Handheld Probing
What is vPROBE?
The vProbe is a handheld tactile probe designed to work in tandem with the Radian Laser Tracker series, enabling precise contact measurements and inspections. Its versatility allows users to capture data from intricate and hard-to-reach places, complementing the non-contact capabilities of the laser tracker.
Who is this for?
vProbe is tailored for those inspecting complex items or tight spots. Ideal for professionals in manufacturing and design.

3D POINTS
UNCERTAINTY (3DU)
3DU is the deviation between a length measured with the vPROBETM (in a static orientation) its nominal value.**
SPATIAL LENGTH
UNCERTAINTY (SLU)
SLU is the deviation between a length measured with the vPROBETM (in a static orientation) its nominal value.**
SPATIAL RADIUS
UNCERTAINTY (RU)
RU is the deviation between a measured sphere’s radius and its nominal value. Where the reference sphere has a radius between 10mm and 50mm**
MEASUREMENT UNIT SPECIFICATION
3DU, SLU, and RU are further specified as a function of the distance between the laser tracker and the measured surface.
*These values represent the Maximum Permissible Error(MPE) between a verified Scale Bar and the expected performance of the instrument.
*Longer Stylus lengths available – accuracy dependent on length.
**Nominal Values are established by the Laser Tracker.
