Manual head with repeatable indexing and probe module changing
MH20i is a compact manual probe head that offers the significant advantage of repeatable indexing, vastly improving productivity for multi-orientation measurement applications. It can be installed on new and existing measuring machines via a shank mounting, and is best suited to manual CMMs.
The integral TP20 probe mount makes MH20i compatible with the full range of TP20 modules. Repeatable interchange between qualified probe modules, coupled with repeatable indexing, gives maximum productivity.
The range of TP20 modules provides a selection of trigger forces and directional sensing options, as well as increased reach with EM1 and EM2 extension bars, and gives some crash protection in the event of accidental collision.
Initial qualification of each measuring position and stylus combination is all that is required.
Key benefits
•Indexing:
Repeatable indexing removes the need for constant re-qualification.
•Productivity:
Improved productivity is realised via probe module changing and indexing without re-qualification.
•Increased reach and flexibility:
Extension bars available, with up to 75 mm extra reach (125 mm from TP20 mount including max styli).
Innovations
•Repeatable probe changing:
The TP20 range offers repeatable probe module changing, allowing the use of different stylus configurations, without the need for re-qualification.
•Crash protection:
TP20 modules have overtravel in all directions. The magnetic mounting provides additional crash protection in X and Y.
