IntroductionRenishaw’s technologyRenishaw stands at the forefront ofautomated metrology, with the Group’sproducts providing manufacturers withthe ability to machine componentsaccurately, and perform measurementtraceable to international standards.Probe technology, allows fast, highlyrepeatable measurements to be carriedout on co-ordinate measuring machines(CMMs).A wide range of automated probingsystems has been developed to meetthe needs of post-process inspection,for quality control.During the manufacturing operation,probes used on computer numericallycontrolled (CNC) machine toolsprovide the measurement capabilityto automatically control the machiningprocess. This eliminates the needfor costly, time consuming manualprocedures.Renishaw gives extra capability to CNCmachine tools and CMMs by enablingscanning and digitising of 3-dimensional(3D) forms to generate the necessaryNC programs to produce either replicaparts, or moulds and dies.Renishaw has developed the Cyclonescanning machine and associatedsoftware, a cost-effective solution tostand-alone digitising.The revolutionary manufacturingsystem, RAMTIC (Renishaw’sautomated milling, turning andinspection centre), maximises thepotential of existing machine tools,enabling milling, turning and inspectionon a single machine, together withautomated loading and unloading ofmaterials and tools.CNC machine tools and CMMs benefi tfrom regular volumetric checking byRenishaw’s automated ball-bar andmachine checking gauge.Comprehensive machine calibrationcan be undertaken, when necessary,using Renishaw’s innovative lasercalibration systems.Renishaw has developed linear scale,laser interferometer and encodersystems for fi tting to a variety ofmachines, to provide axis displacementmeasurement. Dedicated lengths ofrigid scale are not required, sinceRenishaw’s approach has been toproduce fl exible scale that can bedispensed from a reel and cut to therequired length.Renishaw has also applied itsinnovatory approach to produce aRaman microscope and accessories for2D spectral analysis of materials in anon-destructive manner.From its leading market position, theRenishaw Group continues to expandits product range into ever increasingbusiness sectors worldwide. Identifyingand targeting new market opportunitieshas led to the continuous developmentand introduction of new, highlyinnovative products which signifi cantlyenhance the manufacturing capabilitiesin a wide range of industries.
Probing systems forco-ordinate measuring machinesIntroduction to CMM probingCMMs are used for a wide variety of industry applications,especially for post-process inspection of manufacturedcomponents. Renishaw’s probes and probing systems havebecome the industry choice for rapid and accurate inspection.CMMs, which act as a quality reference, use probingsystems to replace traditional manually operated measuringinstruments such as micrometers, vernier callipers anddedicated gauges.Probe systemsRenishaw’s probe systems are available in a wide variety oftypes to enable a best match for a particular application.Fitting the probe on the CMMThe probe is mounted on the CMM via a probe head. Thetype of head is determined by the fl exibility and automationrequired. Renishaw has designed a range of probe heads formanual and automated systems.Motorised heads maximise probing effi ciency and give a 3-axisCMM, 5-axis capability. A motorised head can also be usedwith Renishaw’s autochange systems which allows rapid andautomatic exchange of multiple probe types and extensioncombinations.Advanced controlTraditionally, scanning has been limited to relatively slowmachines but Renishaw’s universal CMM controller familyenables this function at speeds many times faster than waspreviously possible.AccessoriesThe range of accessories enhances the basic system byoffering additional capability such as stylus changing for theprobe, probe sensor changing for multiple probe requirementsand extension bars to provide access to deep features.Renishaw supplies a comprehensive range of styli forcomponent inspection and scanning applications which areavailable in a variety of profi les, sizes and fittings to bestsuit the probe employed and the components’ features anddimensions.To avoid the risk of compromising measurement performance,always use a replacement stylus from Renishaw!Contents1 How to use this guide2 Touch-trigger probeswithout stylus module changing3 Touch-trigger probeswith stylus module changing4 Scanning probes5 Manual probe headswith integral M8/autojoint probe mount6 Manual probe headswith integral TP20 stylus module mount7 Motorised probe headsservo type8 Motorised probe headsindexing type9 Interfaces and controllers10 Change/storage racksfor autojointed probes/extensions11 Extension bars12 Shanks13 Accessories14 Styli and custom design service15 Glossary of terms16 Product index
