Features

• Principal application

Horizontal lathes

Small enough to fit on turret for part measuring,

tool setting and broken tool detection when

mounted in a suitable position.

Machining centre applications

Set-up and part measuring when spindle mounted.

Tool setting and broken tool detection when table

mounted.

• Compact and robust

Ø25 x 40.8 mm long (Ø0.98 x 1.6 in long).

• Probe sealing

Sealed to IPX8.

• Repeatability

Inherent repeatability with all stylus configurations.

• Modular extensions and adaptors

provide ready made installation solutions.

• Stylus weak link protects probe in event

of a collision (optional)

• Signal transmission systems

Hard wired - for machining centres with manual

tool change. The LP2 is used with

the MA2 probe holder.

Inductive - for machining centres and lathes,

eliminates the need for probe batteries.

Optical - for lathes.

Easy installation, particuarly in retrofit

applications as there is no need for

prepared passageways required

for inductive transmission cables.

The LP2 fits onto LTO2/LTO2S/

LTO2T/LTO3T optical modules.

• Software for probe routines

Renishaw supplies an extensive suite of probing

routines for the majority of machine controllers.
