4 Conditions of use
4.1 Components and configurations of the contact (stylus) instrument
The contact (stylus) instrument comprises the basic equipment, a drive unit, a probe and a profile
recorder (see ISO 3274). If the basic equipment is used with several drive units and probes, each of
these instrumental combinations (configurations) shall be calibrated separately.
4.2 Calibration of a configuration
The contact (stylus) instrument shall be calibrated when a change is made to the basic elements of the
system which intentionally or unintentionally modifies the measured profile or measuring result. Each
configuration of the contact (stylus) instrument shall be calibrated separately. For example, with a
change of probe, the contact (stylus) instrument is calibrated.
4.3 Place of calibration
The contact (stylus) instrument should be calibrated at the place of use with environmental conditions
similar to those present when in use for measurement to take into account external influence factors.
EXAMPLES Noise, temperature, vibration, air movement.
4.4 Defects
Geometrical defects that can be present on the surfaces of material measures and calibration specimens
shall be taken into consideration according to ISO 25178-73.
5 Measurement standards
The following measurement standards are applicable to the calibrations given in Clause 6:
— optical flat;
— depth measurement standard (see Figure 1): type A according to ISO 5436-1:2000;
— spacing measurement standard (see Figure 2): type C according to ISO 5436-1:2000;
— inclined optical flat (see Figure 3);
— profile coordinate measurement standard (consisting of a sphere or prism): type E according to
ISO 5436-1:2000;
— roughness measurement standard (see Figure 4): type D according to ISO 5436-1:2000.
It is recommended that a profile coordinate measurement standard be used on contact (stylus)
instruments where the stylus rotates at least plus and minus one half of a degree when moving through
its full range.
NOTE A type C periodic measurement standard is also useful for checking Ra as well as for checking Rsm.

6 Contact (stylus) instrument metrological characteristics
6.1 General
Only those task-related contact (stylus) instrument metrological characteristics which are relevant
for the intended measurements should be selected for calibration and adjustment. For example, for the
measurement of spacing parameters, the vertical profile component need not be calibrated. Adjustment
(if required) of the metrological characteristic shall be carried out after calibration of the metrological
characteristic according to the instrument manufacturer’s procedures.
6.2 Residual profile calibration
The scratch-free optical flat reproduces the residual profile. For task-related calibrations use the
appropriate profile and parameters (e.g. the roughness profile with Ra, Rq or Rt; the waviness profile
with Wa, Wq or Wt, see ISO 21920-2).
NOTE By using this approach the effects of external guide straightness, environmental conditions and
instrument noise can be established.
6.3 Vertical profile component calibration
The depth measurement standard establishes a profile depth in order to measure the error of indication
of the vertical profile component of an instrument.
If no depth measurement standards are available, gauge blocks steps may be used. Care should be taken
concerning the uncertainty of the height difference when using gauge blocks steps.
6.4 Horizontal profile component calibration
The spacing measurement standard reproduces the mean width of profile element, PSm, in order to
measure the error of indication of the horizontal profile component.
6.5 Profile coordinate system calibration
The inclined optical flat reproduces:
— the least-squares-best-fit angle in degrees;
— the total height of the primary profile, Pt, see ISO 21920-2, after removal of the least-squares-best-
fit straight line,
thus establishing the error of the linked horizontal and vertical coordinates (e.g. variation in traverse
speed, nonlinearities in scal

4 Conditions of use
4.1 Components and configurations of the contact (stylus) instrument
The contact (stylus) instrument is comprised of the basic equipment, a drive unit, a probe and a profile
recorder (see ISO 3274). If the basic equipment is used with several drive units and probes, each of
these instrumental combinations (configurations) shall be calibrated separately.
4.2 Calibration of a configuration
The contact (stylus) instrument shall be calibrated when a change is made to the basic elements of the
system which intentionally or unintentionally modifies the measured profile/measuring result. Each
configuration of the contact (stylus) instrument shall be calibrated separately.
EXAMPLE With a change of probe the contact (stylus) instrument shall be calibrated.
4.3 Place of calibration
The contact (stylus) instrument should be calibrated at the place of use with environmental conditions
similar to those present when in use for measurement to take into account external influence factors.
EXAMPLE Noise, temperature, vibration, air movement, etc.
4.4 Defects
Geometrical defects that may be present on the surfaces of material measures and calibration specimens
shall be taken into consideration according to ISO 25178-73.
5 Measurement standards
The following measuring standards are applicable to the calibrations given in Clause 6:
optical flat;
depth measurement standard (Figure 1): type A according to ISO 5436-1; spacing measurement
standard (Figure 2): type C according to ISO 5436-1; inclined optical flat (Figure 3);
profile co-ordinate measurement standard (consisting of a sphere or prism): type E according to
ISO 5436-1;
roughness measurement standard (Figure 4): type D according to ISO 5436-1.
NOTE It is recommended that a profile co-ordinate measurement standard be used on contact (stylus)
instruments where the stylus rotates at least plus and minus one half of a degree when moving through its
full range.

6 Contact (stylus) instrument metrological characteristics
Only those task-related contact (stylus) instrument metrological characteristics which are relevant for
the intended measurements should be selected for calibration. For example, for the measurement of
spacing parameters, the vertical profile component need not be calibrated.
6.1 Residual profile calibration
The scratch-free optical flat reproduces the residual profile. For task-related calibrations use the
appropriate profile and parameters (for example: the roughness profile with Ra, Rq or Rt; the waviness
profile with Wq or Wt).
NOTE By using this approach the effects of external guide straightness, environmental conditions and
instrument noise can be established.

6.2 Vertical profile component calibration
The depth measurement standard establishes a profile depth in order to measure the error of indication
of the vertical profile component of an instrument.
NOTE If no depth measurement standards are available gauge blocks may be used. Care must be taken
concerning the uncertainty of the height difference when using gauge blocks.

6.3 Horizontal profile component calibration
The spacing measurement standard reproduces the mean width of profile element, PSm, in order to
measure the error of indication of the horizontal profile component.
6.4 Profile co-ordinate system calibration
The inclined optical flat reproduces:
— The least squares best fit angle in degrees
— The total height of the primary profile, Pt, after removal of the least squares best fit straight line
thus, establishing the error of the linked horizontal and vertical co-ordinates (i.e. variation in traverse
speed, non linearities in scales, etc.).
The profile co-ordinate measurement standard provides calibration for the total height of the
primary profile, Pt, after removal of the least squares best fit nominal form, thus establishing the co-
ordinate system.
6.5 Calibration of the total contact (stylus) instrument
The roughness measurement standard reproduce the:
— Arithmetical mean deviation, Ra;
— Maximum height of profile, Rz;
Thus establishing an overall check of the total contact (stylus) instrument
7 Calibration
7.1 Preparation for calibration
Before calibration, the contact (stylus) instrument shall be checked to determine if it operates correctly
as described in the manufacturer's operating instructions. The condition of the stylus tip shall also be
checked according to the manufacturer's instructions.
For contact (stylus) instruments the following shall be complied with
— The residual profile is to be evaluated.
— The plane of the depth measurement standard shall be aligned to the reference surface in the best
possible way.
— All measurement standards shall be aligned properly, for example the plane of the roughness
measurement standard shall be aligned to within 10% of the measuring gauge range but not more
than 10 µm over the evaluation length.
— In task related calibrations, roughness measurement standards shall be used with the appropriate
roughness, comparable to the roughness of the surface to be measured.
— Measurements shall be taken in the middle of the vertical measuring range of the probe each time.
— A sufficient number of measurements shall be taken on each measurement standard for the required
measurement uncertainty, (see Clause 8). Repeated measurements are usually necessary due to the
inhomogeneity of the measurement standard, the variability of the measurement procedure, and
the repeatability of the contact (stylus) instrument.

— The conditions used to measure the measurement standard shall be compatible with those used to
calibrate the measurement standard.
— The best fit procedure (i.e. least squares, minimum zone, etc.), used in the calibration of the
measurement standard, shall be used.
7.2 Evaluation of the residual profile
Traverse the optical flat. Determine the residual profile and calculate the surface texture parameters
Pt and Pq.
For task-related calibration, calibrate in accordance with the measuring conditions for each required
measurement. For example, when measuring a roughness measurement standard, a cut-off wavelength
λc = 0,8 mm and a cut-off ratio of 300:1, making a total evaluation length of 4 mm, are used. The
measured values of Ra and Rz shall be indicated in the calibration certificate for the instrument.
7.3 Calibration of the vertical profile component profile
7.3.1 Overall objective
Traverse the groove(s) of the depth measurement standard. From the primary profile determine the
respective deviations from the value stated in the appropriate calibration certificate.
7.3.2 Procedure
Measure the groove(s) in profile sections within the calibrated area of the measurement standard (see
Figure 1). Traverse the groove(s) individually and determine the depth of the groove(s) according to
the calibration procedure supplied with the depth measurement standard. State the deviation of the
(mean) value [obtained from the measured value(s)] from the figure given in the calibration certificate
of the depth measurement standard.
Alternatively, if a depth measurement standard is not available, wring two gauge blocks, juxtaposed,
onto an optical flat. Traverse across both gauge blocks and determine the respective height difference
from the total profile. State the deviation in the measured height difference from the difference in
heights calculated from the values stated in the calibration certificates of the gauge blocks.
