Touch Probes for Machine Tools
High accuracy and performancewww.heidenhain.com

Fully automated inspection and machining
Reliable inspection measurement is often the key to a fully automated manufacturing
environment. Touch probes with integrated workpiece cleaning ensure that measured
surfaces are cleared of chips. This can be achieved through internal coolant jets emitting
either pressurized air or cooling lubricant.
Your benefits
 Integrated measured-surface cleaning with pressurized air or cooling lubricant
 Elimination of measurement errors caused by chips or foreign matter Automated measured-surface cleaning without program interruptions
 No need for separate aids

Accelerate production processes
Thanks to their higher probing speed, touch probes from HEIDENHAIN can reduce yourcycle time by up to 30% without a loss in accuracy. The time saved is usually a full second.
And due to the probe’s high repeatability, a single probing block is all you need in the partprogram. This improves overall machine performance during setup, part inspection andmachine calibration (in conjunction with a calibration sphere).
Reduce your non-productive time Setup and calibration in one probing block, at up to 3 m/min
 Approx. 30% faster probing cycle

High service life: protect your capital assets
Touch probes from HEIDENHAIN feature a long deflection distance and offer additional
protection through a rated break point either in the stylus or in the connecting pin to theprobe contact. For enhanced collision protection of the touch probing housing, the TS 460 isavailable with an optional mechanical adapter between the touch probe and the taper shank.
This protects the spindle during a collision in the Z direction, when the touch probe is
subjected to strong forces. In this scenario, spindle protection is usually preferred, even at
the expense of damaging the touch probe. The collision protection adapter also functions as
a thermal decoupler, protecting the touch probe from absorbing spindle heat.
Your benefits
 Spindle protection during collision, and thermal decoupling of the spindle
 50 million probing cycles with no loss in accuracy Rapid repair and exchange device availability thanks to extensive distributor network
 Worldwide consulting and customer service
