TCS - TRUE CUTTING SCAN FOR THE HIGHEST PRECISION

Features:

• Scans the really longest cutting circle
• Searches the longest cutting circle diameter
• Uses this to the exact length measurement
• Correct tool length measurement

Benefits:

• Determines the real tool length
• High precision length measurement
• High-end functionality - exclusively from m&h

TOOL CLEANING USING LAVAL NOZZLE

• Laval nozzle with supersonic pressure
• Tool cleaning in measuring position
• Tool cleaning with nominal rotation speed for optimum cleaning results
• Minimal cleaning distance
• Sealing cap prevents penetration of foreign objects and liquid

• Precision measurements regardless of geometry and tool dimensions
• Uncertainty in measurement due to varying thermal expansion of materials is ruled out
• Precision measurements for tools larger than 0.008 mm (0.0003'')
• Supersonic air jets significantly reduce measurement errors from dirt on the tool
• Software algorithms to eliminate the effects of coolant drops
• No interference from ambient light

Sturdy design

• Compact, stainless steel housing
• Laser optics protected using motor-operated shutter unit
• Air curtain prevents dirt particles entering the device
• Measurement system sealed according to IP68 standard

Simple setup

• Simple mounting and setup without special pneumatic unit
• No special, accurate alignment of the laser unit required
• Simple orientation and mechanical definition of the focal point
• No external activation of the shutter unit and air curtain

Operation suitable for the workshop

• Simple and reliable calibration and set-up of the laser unit
• Maintenance of the laser optics without tools, removable shutter unit
• Easy to regulate, accessible air curtain
• Measurement of very short tools possible

Applications and measuring routines

• Dynamic, precision measurement of length and diameter for almost any tool from Ø >0.008 mm (0.0003")
• Measurement of the cutting edge geometry at nominal speed
• Length compensation of dynamic changes in tool position
• Correction of tool length in case of thermal change and thermal drift of the spindle or machine axes
• Diameter compensation for dynamic changes in the rotational diameter of a tool
• Detection and compensation of tool wear
• Monitoring of run-out, tool change and clamping errors
• Tool breakage detection
