Tool measurement
-
- For milling cutters, drills/step drills and form cutters.
In the machines, different geometrical values can be measured with the help of a probe, depending on the tool type. (The following list is not complete):
- Clamping length, radial view direction, division, position of coolant hole
- Diameter, lead, taper angle, taper, cutting edge length, flute depth
- Shear angle, chamfer angle, side distance
- Run-out error - This option needs a single customized adaptation to the installed measurement procedure.
- The possibilities are dependent from the form of the used probe.
- For milling cutters, drills/step drills and form cutters.
-
- For form and cup wheels: diameter and flange dimension.
- For peripheral wheels: diameter, flange dimension, width and angle.
- This option needs a single customized adaptation to the installed measurement procedure.
-
- Measurement of ground diameter immediately after the according operation is finished.
Available for several operations. Detailed information upon request. - After measurement automatic compensation and repetition of the operation if needed.
- Requires a probe with a cylindrical shank which allows to probe the diameter from above and below the tool.
- This option demands item no. CH-50052110 (Measuring tools). Additional item no. CH-50052230 (NUMROTOControl / Loader) is recommended.
- Measurement of ground diameter immediately after the according operation is finished.
-
- Measurement of the change of the machine zero point in all three linear axes using the work piece or wheel probe.
- For example, the thermal growth of the machine can be compensated.
- This option needs a single customized adaptation to the installed measurement procedure.
