Many measuring systems define limits for the weight and length of stylus systems. Exceeding these limits may result in stylus malfunction. The chart below shows the permissible fields use for ZEISS XXT systems TL 1 to TL 4.

Attention! Never exceed the permissible maximum weight. The specification in the documentation of your measuring machine is always binding.

A good stylus system combines maximum rigidity and temp resistance with minimum weight. It has few joints, and
can record all probing points safely. Many sensors set strict limits for the weight and length of stylus systems; some can only bear stylus systems up to 15g. In such cases, always use materials that are as light as possible. To avoid exceeding pull-out torque limit values,
make sure the weight is distributed as evenly as possible.

• Our special ZEISS REACH CFX 3⁺ carbon fiber permits precision results at higher measuring speeds and
  fluctuating ambient temperatures.
• For the highest possible scanning speed with low form error, choose extensions with a large
  diameter, low weight and high rigidity.
• Weight distribution must be slightly symmetrical to keep tilt torque within specified limit values.
