Cable-free OTS Twin-Probe System from Renishaw performs automated part set-up, measurement, tool setting and broken tool detection. The machine tool system combines a spindle-mounted OMP40-2 inspection probe and OTS tool-setting probe with an optical receiver, enabling fast system integration and cable-free installation on machining centers, especially with twin pallets and rotary tables (read more)

The use of touch probes reduces setup times, helps to increase machine usage time, and improves the dimensional accuracy of the finished workpieces. Their setup, measuring and monitoring functions can be performed manually or automatically. Touch probes are used primarily on milling machines and machining centers, and ... -HEIDENHAIN Corporation (read more)

The Macro Sensors GHSDR 750 Series of 3/4 inch diameter DC-DC Spring-Loaded LVDT_DC Sensor are designed for a wide range of position measurement and dimensional gaging applications. These rugged hermetically sealed sensors are constructed entirely of stainless steel and intended for general industrial use. The ... (read more)

The LVDT Probe BBP/BBT Series of precision gaging probes are available in either .375 " [9.5 mm] or .315" [8 mm] body diameters. Utilizing linear ball-bearing assemblies, these LVDTs provide exceptional repeatability and long service life. • Ranges of ±0.04" [±1.0 mm] to ±0.20" [±5.0 mm] • in either pneumatic push (air extend) or spring loaded probes ...

Now more can enjoy the benefits of HEIDENHAIN's 3D touch trigger probes as they can now be used on many CNC controls for milling, drilling and boring machines, and machining centers. This is possible through the use of HEIDENHAIN's new UTI 192 Universal Touch Probe Interface making these probes compatible with CNC controls with a fast switching input. (read more)

The GAPMAN is equipped with a patented GPD series quick-change probe (as shown above). GPD probes are like the HPD sensors, but with both interface connection on the same side to conveniently connect to our patented contacts. (read more)

Similar to the HPC Series the threaded probes allow mounting into a drill and tapped hole or bracket where more limited access is available. The probe is held in place with a mating nut (optional) and may be rotated for fine axial positioning. (read more)

A tremendous advantage in measuring displacement and part dimensional changes can be gained by use of thin "side-looking" Capacitec® button probes. Their forte is in thin gap inspection and tolerances measured inboard and hidden in difficult to investigate products. They are often used in pairs to compensate for part misalignment and gage positioning. (read more)
