The laser tool setter Compact is designed for usage in machines with a limited amount of space for the measurement of particularly small tools.

With a length of 123 mm and a height of only 66 mm, there is space for the system even in a small machine. The cable outlet is also only downward to prevent the need for more space for cables and the pneumatic supply.

Application:
  • Determination of tool length
  • Measurement of tool radius
  • Detection of broken tools

Benefits:

  • TCS technology (True Cutting Scan) - for the highest precision
  • Tool cleaning using Laval nozzle with supersonic pressure
  • Optimal protection of the optics by means of pneumatic shutter unit
  • Features & benefits
    Compact laser optics
    • Compact laser measuring device - the smallest in its class
    • Smallest tool diameter 25 μm
    • Accuracy +-0.2 μm

    Tcs - true cutting scan for the highest precision

    Features:
