We start with a thorough cleaning:

Clean and/or degrease the outside of the machine using a mild detergent

Clean & lubricate accessible lead-screws and bearing ways.

Inspect and clean all optics including lenses, mirrors, stage glass, and monitor/chart glass, using a coating-safe lens cleaner and lint-free lens tissues

Remove burrs and high spots from the table surface and ways.

Not just the ones on the outside of the machine!

Align and collimate the light source parallel to the optics.

From there, we finish with a world class calibration that includes before and after adjustment data…

Comparator calibration includes:

Focus squareness parallel to optical axis

Table squareness perpendicular to optical axis

Perpendicularity of X to Y axis

Edge detection accuracy to centerline for systems equipped with behind the mirror edge systems

Magnification & distortion accuracy for all lenses equipped with the machine

Chart angular rotation in 90 and 180 degrees

Chart holds centerline in 180 degrees

X & Y axes lead accuracy, every inch for the entire length of travel
