詳細介紹
Wear-free, optoelectronic signal generation
- The trigger signal is generated via shading of a miniature light barrier
- Enables much higher measuring speeds and accuracy than with conventional probes
- Wear-free with long-term stability
High-precision, modern measuring mechanism using linear working principle
- Ball-bearing precision linear guidance
- The functional principle prevents lateral forces acting on the tool
- Very low measuring force
Reliable measurement and monitoring of micro-tools
- Measurement and breakage detection of sensitive and very small tools
- Tool measurement from D = 0.05 mm
- Extremely fast measurement at up to 2 m/min
BLUM tool measuring probes
Tool measuring probes by BLUM can be used for the most varied measurement and monitoring tasks in CNC machining centres.
Non-contact breakage detection of centric tools such as drills, mills, engraving tools, taps and reamers.
Automatic setting and wear monitoring of tools by quick and precise length measurement.
Compensation of tool wear using measurements between the machining steps. The wear value is stored as an additive correction value in the tool offset memory.
Compensation of the temperature-dependent thermal behaviour of machining centres.
Reliable and fast measurements in coolant thanks to modern measuring mechanism and robust design.
Perfectly suitable for mass production under the harshest conditions.
Tool setting probe Z-Pico
- Max. probing speed: 2 m/min
- Repeatability: 1 μm 2σ (standard)
- Min. tool diameter: > 0.05 mm*
- Protection class: IP67
* Depending on geometry and material of tool. Probing force must not result in damage to tool.
Additional information can be found in the relevant brochure and in the operating manual.
BLUM measuring cycles
The measuring cycles are user-friendly subroutines of the machine control. They can be used on milling and turning machines for the following measuring tasks
- Calibrating the probe
- Tool length measurement
- Tool wear monitoring
- Tool breakage detection (monitoring drill bit breakage, engraving tools, etc.)
The measuring cycles are available for many conventional controls. Your local BLUM-representative will gladly inform you about the range of features for your control.
Blow nozzles for tool cleaning
The optional blow nozzles by BLUM effectively clean the tool and measuring surface of any coolant and chips.
