TS LINE - Contact Tool Setter Line

Description

The TS Line includes dedicated probes for presetting contact tools and tool measurements and integrity inspections. TS Line probes enable users to maintain part dimension tolerances under control, thanks to the cutting edge wear monitoring function and the correction of thermal drift caused by ambient and machine conditions. This helps to reduce the quantity of rejects caused by undetected tool breakages during unmonitored machining processes.

The probes are available with three different transmission systems:

• Hard-wired transmission: the TS30 and TS30 90° probes are supplied with an integrated interface
• Optical signal transmission: the VOTS and VOTS 90° probes are used together with the VOI optical receiver. No cables are required, and this simplifies the installation procedure on the machine. The probes use modulated optical technology, which renders them immune to light interference.
• Radio transmission: the WRTS probe is used together with the WRI radio receiver. This probe may be usedin the case of applications where there is no direct line of sight between the presetting system and the receiver.
