| Touch probes from HEIDENHAIN were conceived for use on machine tools—in particular milling machines and machining centers. Touch probes help to reduce setup times, increase machine usage time and improve the dimensional accuracy of the finished workpieces. Setup, measuring and monitoring functions can be performed manually or—in conjunction with most CNC controls—also under program control. Workpiece measurement HEIDENHAIN offers TS touch probes for workpiece measurement right on the machine. The probe is inserted in the tool holder either manually or by the tool changer. They enable you to use the probing functions offered by your NC control to automatically or manually perform: - Workpiece alignment - Workpiece presetting - Workpiece measurement - Digitizing or inspecting 3-D surfaces Tool measurement Successful series production hinges on the prevention of scrap or rework and the attainment of consistently good workmanship. The tool is a decisive factor here. Wear or tool breakage that go undetected for extended periods, especially during unattended operation, result in defective parts and unnecessarily increase costs. Therefore, exact measurement of tool dimensions as well as periodic control of wear are absolutely essential. For tool measurement on the machine, HEIDENHAIN offers the TT three-dimensional touch probe and the TL laser systems. |
