Featuring industry-first, blue laser technology and improved optics, Renishaw’s NC4+ Blue systems deliver a step-change in on-machine tool measurement accuracy, with tool-to-tool performance proven to industrial standards.
Compared to red laser sources found in conventional non-contact tool setters, blue laser technology has a shorter wavelength, resulting in improved diffraction effects and optimised laser beam geometry. This enables the measurement of very small tools, whilst minimising tool-to-tool measurement errors – a critical consideration when machining with a wide range of cutting tools.
