Constant production quality requires the use of reliable accurate tooling. One vital requirement is precise tool data. m&h Tool Setter for tool measurement detect tool length and tool radius directly on the machine. The data is automatically transferred to the tool table of the control. Periodic tool checks for broken tools or wear create additional production safety. The Tool Setter from m&h will do this job, saving time and increasing reliability.
HDR (High Data Rate) technology avoids interference caused by ambient light from outside and inside the machining area. On the one hand we use the 75 Hz transmission frequency which is different from worldwide line frequencies of 50 Hz or 60 Hz, respectively. On the other hand, an extremely high data rate of 9600 light pulses/sec prevents interference from pulsing machine lamps. Adjustable transmitting power and large transmitting angles go without saying for m&h touch probes. Large receiving angles and microprocessor-controlled evaluation of receiving signals give an absolutely perfect infrared light transmission.
