Tool measurement with TT140 touch probes
TT series, wired connection.
  • for tool length and diameter measurement

  • for tool breakage detection.
Heidenhain TT-140 cable connected touch probe

The TS workpiece touch probes from HEIDENHAIN help you perform setup, measuring and inspection functions directly on the machine tool.

The stylus of a TS three-dimensional touch trigger probe is deflected
upon contact with a workpiece surface. At that moment the TS generates
a trigger signal that is transmitted either by cable or over an infrared
beam to the control.

The control simultaneously saves the actual position values as measured
by the machine axis encoders, and uses this information for further
processing. The trigger signal i generated through a wear-free optical
switch that ensures high reliability.
