Why install a probe on a CNC machine?

Time is money. It saves money by saving the manual alignment and detection of manual tool positioning and manual workpiece positions. The addition of our probe system can reduce the costly manual assistance time for most manual and offline inspections, and reduce or even eliminate waste caused by human factors.

Will your expensive CNC machine be idle for hours during the first offline inspection? Moving the workpiece to the coordinate measuring machine or other offline detection methods during manual measurement can be time consuming. Using the machine tool probe can quickly complete the on-machine inspection of the workpiece and automatically set offset compensation values ​​to improve the machining accuracy and avoid Repeated clamping and repeat positioning.

“Using the measuring head changed our production mode, saved a lot of auxiliary time, almost no waste! It's so easy to use, too good!”, “small batch processing order can be so fast, thanks to the measured Head!” Feedback from Shenyang machine tool users (workpiece probes and tool setters for machining centers).

The measuring head produced by Pioneer Mechatronics has been equipped by many domestic machine tool manufacturers and parts processing companies to improve the quality and productivity of workpieces. The easy-to-install feature of the probe allows it to be fully installed on existing CNC machine tools.

The measurement software package uses an easy-to-program macro program to control the part alignment, tool setting and measurement process. These standard measurement programs are easy to insert into the workpiece machining program and can be called automatically using standard machine code.
