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)

Bringing "out of sight" precision to complex 3D part measurement on machine tools, the new RMP600 touch probe combines two exclusive Renishaw technologies — highest accuracy strain-gage sensing and frequency-hopping spread-spectrum (FHSS) radio transmission. The design allows unmatched precision where obstacles or part features block transmission by optical line-of-sight probes. (read more)

Dual-purpose probe performs scanning and touch trigger probing for ultimate flexibility, while compact design optimizes feature access and probe configurability (read more)

For users looking for an alternative to battery-operated touch probes for machining applications, HEIDENHAIN Corporation offers the TS 444 infrared touch probe. The new TS 444 can be powered by an alternative energy source in the form of compressed air supplied through the spindle of the machine tool, and can be of use with all HEIDENHAIN control systems.
