Product News: Renishaw Five-Axis Probe Head Increases CMM Throughput


PH20 probe head increases touch-trigger coordinate measurement machine inspection throughput up to three times

Renishaw’s new PH20 probe head increases touch-trigger coordinate measurement machine (CMM) inspection throughput up to three times using fast, infinite, rotary positioning and unique “head touch” capability for high-speed point capture with minimal CMM movement.

Designed for use with the industry-standard TP20 touch-trigger probe, the new PH20 head brings five-axis inspection capability to smaller CMMs for the first time by optimizing the working volume of the measurement platform. The PH20 is available for new CMMs, as well as retrofit machines using shank or quill mounting. It can use most existing inspection programs for indexing heads without modification and requires no compressed air.

 

Renishaw’s new PH20 probe head can be retrofitted to your existing Nikon Metrology CMM.  Call (810) 220-4360 for details.

Or visit Renishaw at Eastec 2010, Booth #3128 to see the PH20 probe head using the TP20 touch-trigger probe in action on Nikon Metrology’s LK CMM.
