The automated indexing of the RTP20 allows the integral TP20 probe to be moved to 168 repeatable positions in 15-degree increments using both the A and B axes, requiring a one-time only qualification for each stylus position thus ensuring fast throughput for part inspection.
RTP20 probe key benefits
•Productivity:
Improved productivity is achieved via probe module changing and automated indexing without the need for constant re-qualification.
•Increased reach and flexibility:
A built-in extension together with existing extension bars allow reach up to 168 mm (including maximum stylus length).
•Automation:
Utilising the CMM motion to lock and orientate the head, together with the MCR20, provides a fully automated system.
•Crash protection:
TP20 modules have overtravel in all directions. The magnetic mounting provides additional crash protection in X and Y.
•TP20 modules:
The existing 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. A range of seven application specific stylus modules is available.
RTP20 offers low-cost 'motorised' head functionality with integral TP20 touch-trigger probe, providing improved productivity, increased reach and flexibility.
