Designed primarily for machining centres our probes are suitable for application with or without a direct line of sight. Connected directly to you cnc controller, our probes are with customised probing software or directly with a wide range of probing cycle macros. Precision Tools for the professional machinist from EMG Precision.

How are CNC Probing Systems Used?

Machine probing systems are used extensively in machining and inspection industries. In professional machine shops all over the world Tool Probes are used on CNC milling machines, machine tool lathes, CNC routers and inspection and measurement system machines. Touch trigger probes are most often used in automatic tool change systems in order to take advantage of the time savings that automation of inspection, offset setting, pre-set setting and more. Touch Trigger probes can be used for a whole range of tasks from inspection and digitizing 3D surfaces, stock size & positions, feature size and position. CNC Probes are often used with probe measure systems or software to control the probing activity. On some type of systems the software is in the form of a Guided User Interface (GUI), and others the probe measure system consists of a number of probing macros.

 

 

How Do CNC Touch Probes Work?

The combination of using of a Touch Probe and Tool Setter when easily integrated into your CNC control processes and software can become instrumental in making massive improvements to your resultant total customer satisfaction. Fully automated use of these tools will also make your machine shop huge financial savings with productivity, scrap and yield improvements over conventional methods.

Touch probes, or sometimes known as triggering touch probes or touch-trigger probes. They work by touch parts of stock material, part or tool to collect a number of required data points. The machine operator can use a probe like this to precisely find the position of components or stock materials. This precision information can then be used to update machine settings, offsets and position data in your CNC control software or CAM model.

Touch probes are often used on milling machines in conjunction with an automatic tool change carousel system but can also be used by manual exchanging a cutting tool for the probe. Touch Probes are often used in conjunction with a CNC Milling Tool Height Setter.
