Introduction
The TS27R probe is used for tool setting on CNC machining centres.
For tool length measurements and broken tool detection, the tool is driven against the probe’s stylus in the
Z axis. Rotating tools can be set in the X and Y axes for tool radius offsets.
Screw adjusters allow the stylus to be aligned with the machine’s axes.
An interface unit processes signals between the probe and the CNC controller.
