3-D touch probes

Applications for HEIDENHAIN 3-D touch probes:
Quickly and precisely set presets
Measure the workpiece
Measure and inspect tools
Touch trigger probes TS 260 and KT 130
The TS 260 and KT 130 touch probes transmit the trigger signals via
a cable.
HEIDENHAIN touch trigger probes feature a wear-resistant optical
switch that detects the deflection of the stylus. On deflection, a
trigger signal is generated, which causes the control to store the
current position of the touch probe as the actual value.
Tool touch probe TT 160
The TT 160 touch probe is designed for the efficient and precise
measurement and inspection of tool dimensions.
The control offers cycles that enable you to determine the tool
length and radius while the spindle is rotating or stationary. The
tool touch probe features a particularly rugged design and a high
degree of protection, which make it insensitive to coolants and
swarf.
A wear-resistant optical switch generates the trigger signal. With
the TT 160, signal transmission is by cable.
