5-Axis probe systems are probe heads that articulate in 2-axis using the CMM 3-axis simultaneously available with tactile sensor or scanning sensor measuring faster than conventional probe systems.
Function
A 5-axis probe system delivers unprecedented measuring speed and flexibility without conceding any accuracy. Unlike conventional CMM measuring probes and techniques, a 5-axis probe system avoids the speed versus accuracy compromise, boosting throughput of more accurate workpieces. 5-axis probe uses an articulating head that moves in two rotary axes as it measures, reducing acceleration inertial deflections in the machine structure that leads to measurement errors.
- 5-axis probe motion also eliminates time spent indexing the head
- Mitutoyo offers the REVO scanning 5-axis probe and the PH20 tactile 5-axis probe for CNC CMMs
- The REVO is ideal for surface finish measurements and dimensional inspections
- The PH20 uses unique head touches to allow measurement points to be taken by moving only the head, rather than the CMM structure
