What's the role of CNC machine tool probe?

Touch probes for CNC machines can measure and find the base position of the workpiece quickly and accurately, set or modify the workpiece coordinate automatically. CNC machine tool probe can also realize the on-machine detection of the corresponding machining parts through the network technology, and provide the corresponding machine tool measurement error compensation to ensure that the corresponding data of the workpiece reaches the standardized production

How does a CNC touch probe work?

After the CNC machine tool is produced, the CNC machine tool probe will measure and test the corresponding metal mold parts again through its own measurement software, and digitizing probe would display the corresponding measurement data into a digital report directly in front of the operator, and cnc digitizing touch probe automatically return the unqualified products for compensate processing and production to ensure a 100% pass rate of machine metal mold parts.

How to select CNC machine tool probe?

1. Enterprises can choose probes flexibly according to processing needs. In addition, the machine tool probe can also be selected according to the complexity of the processing. 2. As an important component of the machine tool probe measuring system, the stylus will directly affect the measurement results of the machine tool probe in cnc measuring. So companies can use the stylus as a reference when selecting probes in measurement touch probe.

What is a touch probe?

The CNC machine tool probe is a measuring device equipped on a CNC machine tool, and machine tool measurement can be installed on most CNC machine tools such as CNC lathes, machining centers, and CNC grinders. Without human intervention in the processing cycle, the size and position of the tool or workpiece are directly measured, and the offset of the workpiece or tool is automatically corrected according to the measurement result, so that the same machine tool can process more high-precision parts.

CNC Machine Tool Touch Probe Stylus

As an important component of the probe measurement system, the probe stylus/sensor is mainly composed of three parts: the stylus ball, the stylus rod, and the stylus handle. A probe stylus is the part of the measuring system which makes contact with the component, causing the probe's mechanism to displace. The generated signal enables a measurement to be taken. The feature to be inspected dictates the type and size of the stylus used. The CNC machine tool probe sensor is an important execution element when measuring as a trigger sensor in a machine tool probe. The probe stylus range comprises many different types, varying in size and material. We divided the styli into 4 types according to the different styli handles. M2, M3, M4, and M5. Types of sensors used in cnc machines attaches great importance to choose the right CNC touch probe stylus for your application. As a professional and experienced touch probe sensor supplier, Harbin Pioneer will help you choose the right design of touch probe sensor for each inspection need.

FAQs of CNC Machine Tool Touch Probe Stylus/Sensor

How to select the correct and applicable stylus?

A :
Choose the corresponding stylus according to the different processing materials and measuring workpiece. For example, when we are measuring hard workpieces, we can choose a more rigid stainless steel stylus or tungsten carbide stylus to ensure that the machine tool stylus will not bend or bend to a minimum during the probe measurement.
Is it compatible with other brand styli?

A :
Yes. If the key size is the same, it can replace other brands styli.
What's your tool setter warranty policy?

A :
We provide 13 months warranty, lifetime maintenance.
