Optical edge finders

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.
