The cabezal of 5 axles for inspection with shot by contact in MMC triplica the production

His compact design allows to use it in the new MMC, with possibility of installation retrofit in the majority of the installations of MMC of shot by existent contact.

The new cabezal of probe PH20 also provides advantages to the users of MMC by means of the adaptable positioning, with possibility of adaptation of pieces badly ranged, fast execution of routines of calibrated and integral setting of the probe TP20, that optimises the volume of work of the MMC and provides functions of 5 axes for the first time in machines smaller.

By means of the incorporation of the probe of shot by contact TP20, standard of the sector, the users of the cabezal of probe PH20 have of immediate access to a series of modules of probe of tested efficiency, that provides a wide selection of strengths of shot, options of directional detection and extensions to adapt to the requirements of the application. The removable modules provide protection against collisions and can change automatically by means of the cambiador of modules MCR20. The companies that use the current system TP20, can update to the model PH20 and take advantage of the existent modules*.

Apropos this significant introduction, Brian Gow, director of Marketing of MMC of Renishaw comments that “whereas REVO has defined the standard of measurement in machines MMC of 5 axes of greater size, one of the most interesting appearances of the new cabezal of probe PH20 is that it opens the door to our new technologies to the majority of the users of MMC. To the equal that REVO, the cabezal PH20 minimises the movements of the MMC, reducing like this the dynamic errors of the machine, whereas the fast ‘contacts of cabezal' allow to obtain the points of measurement much more quickly using only the movement giratorio of the cabezal. The result is a greater precision, repetibilidad and a considerable improvement in the performance of inspection, with a measurement of pieces until thrice faster that with the current systems of shot by contact”.

Spectacular reduction of the times of calibrated

For a lot of users of MMC, the calibrated can suppose a long and laborious process. The new cabezal PH20 allows a spectacular reduction of the times of calibrated by means of a fast technical scoop of ‘calibración inferred', that determines the orientation of the cabezal and the position of the probe in an alone operation, what allows to realise the following measurements in any angle of the cabezal.

PH20 can purchase with the new MMC or like option of installation retrofit, and includes the own service retrofit for MMC of Renishaw, everything entirely integrated in a solution that includes the package of software for metrology MODUS of Renishaw. The system PH20 uses the control UCC of Renishaw, that provides connection with the systems of existent metrology and the software of application by means of the protocol established I++.

For users of systems of inspection of shot by contact, the PH20 supposes an excellent opportunity to update the cabezales existent to the technology of 5 more modern axes. By his design, the system PH20 does not require supply of air, therefore, can place in the cane of the MMC directly or by means of an espiga and a series of adapters of setting. The most important is that in the majority of the cases, the system PH20 can execute programs of indexado of cabezales existent without realising modifications.
