OPTICAL EDGE FINDERS

3D, 2D and precision probe versions

Edge finders 3D – developed by us, produced only by us!

Functionality: If a conductive workpiece and the probing ball touch (within the axis X, Y and Z), the electrical circuit gets closed and a LED signal appears. When the LED signal appears, the workpiece‘s edge is reached with a distance of 5 mm (= radius of probing ball Ø10). n Z axis, the reference length has to be measured and taken into account respectively.

Application: For accurate zero point determination and bore centers to the spindle with an accuracy of probing smaller than 0.010 mm.
Please note: Protection against humidity is essential for the edge finder due to the built-in electronical components.
The optical edge finders are available in all usual shank sizes.
The functionality of the 2D edge finder is the same as in the 3D version.
Even more precise? No problem: Our 3D precision probe is a highly precise measuring device with an accuracy of <=0,005 mm.
Did you know? The optical edge finders are also available as an optical + acoustic version.

3D TESTERS

Our 3D Tester product portfolio

With our broad 3D Tester product portfolio, we offer an outstanding solution for precise measurements and workpiece positioning.

The 3D Testers are not only characterized by their robust construction, but also impress with a slim and attractive design that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. These probes offer a wide range of precise and versatile applications that enable workpiece zero points and length dimensions to be determined quickly and easily.

An outstanding feature of the 3D Tester is its ability to carry out probing in all axis directions (X/Y/Z) with the same pointer resolution. This enables extremely precise alignment and positioning of the workpiece. As soon as the indicators point to “0”, this signals that the spindle axis is exactly aligned with the workpiece edge which is an indispensable basis for precise machining operations.
