  • Page 7: Safety

    Lithium metal batteries are classified as dangerous goods for transportation and require labelling and packaging in accordance with the dangerous goods regulations before being offered for transportation. To reduce the risk of shipment delays, should you need to return this product to Renishaw for any reason, do not return any batteries.
  • Page 8 The product was evaluated and classified using the following standard: BS EN 62471:2008 The photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems. Renishaw recommends that you do not stare at or look directly into any LED device, irrespective of its risk classification.

    Performing this calibration for every 3D direction can be time-consuming. The OMP400 has almost no pre-travel variation, so a single calibration value may be used for any probing angle in 2D or 3D. This results in a vastly reduced calibration time. An additional benefit is a corresponding reduction in errors introduced by environmental changes within the machine during a long calibration cycle.
  • Page 10: Optical Transmission Method

    In a twin probe system, such as a spindle probe and an optical tool setting probe, the spindle probe would be set to PROBE 1 start and the tool setter to PROBE 2 start. NOTE: When used in conjunction with an OMI-2T, the OMP400 switch on method must be set to optical on (standard).
  • Page 11: Modes Of Operation

    (this assumes that the tool change process is completed in less than 3 seconds). NOTES: The probing program on the machine will need to take account of this delay. When used in conjunction with an OMI-2T, the OMP400 switch on method must be set to optical on (standard).
  • Page 12: Switch-On / Switch Off Methods

    It may be necessary to reduce the probe's approach speed to allow for increased stylus overtravel during the extended time delay. Whilst there is also a 0 ms setting, this is for Renishaw's use only. Renishaw does not recommend that you use this setting as false triggering is likely to occur.

    PROBE 2 start should only be selected for a secondary spindle probe in a twin probe application. Optical power Where the separation between the OMP400 and the receiver is small (no more than 2 m), the low optical power setting may be selected. This setting reduces the optical transmission range and extends...

    OMP400 installation guide Calibrating the OMP400 Why calibrate a probe? A spindle probe is just one component of the measurement system which communicates with the machine tool. Each part of the system can introduce a constant difference between the position that the stylus touches, and the position that is reported to the machine.

    NOTE: The stored radii values are based on the true electronic trigger points. These values are different from the physical sizes. Calibrating the probe length 3.11 Calibrating a probe on a known reference surface determines the length of the probe, based on the electronic trigger point.
