2.1 Introduction
This user’s guide describes an automated inspection system using the Renishaw PH10
series of motorised probe heads; the PH10T, PH10M and PH10MQ.
Information is given on the elements of the system and accessories.
A typical installation is shown, followed by a description of manual mode and automatic
mode operation.
A list of possible operating errors is also given together with maintenance information.
The installation of the PH10 system is described in the PH10 series installation guide
(Renishaw part number H-1000-5071) which is intended primarily for use by the CMM
supplier for installation and commissioning purposes.
WARNING: The components of the PH10 system are not compatible with PH9
system components. No attempt should be made to connect PH10 system
components to a PH9 system, as this will result in damage to the product.
2.2 PH10 motorised probe head range
Each of the heads in the PH10 range is a general-purpose, versatile unit designed
specifically for use on direct computer controlled (DCC) CMMs.
The range consists of three heads:
• PH10T a shank-mounted head with two-wired probe capability and an M8 thread
• PH10M a shank-mounted head with multiwired probe capability and a Renishaw
autojoint
• PH10MQ a quill-mounted head with multiwired probe capability and a Renishaw
