WRSP60 - Radio Transmission Scanning Probe

The WRSP60 scanning probe can be used to check that the profile of a newly machined part is correct and detect any surface defects directly in the machine, thereby avoiding the need to transfer it to the measurement laboratory, and then reposition it in the machine if it requires subsequent reworking. Marposs has developed the WRSP60 probe, which, tanks to the radio transmission system, can be used to scan parts directly on the most commonly used chip removal machine tools. When using WSRP60 probes it is possible to perform operations that would be impossible with standard touch probes, or would result in greatly increased cycle times, such as profile quality controls, part misalignment corrections and surface deformation checks with cutting program correction, master comparisons and run-out checks, they can also be used to perform the “touch” necessary to position the part correctly.

The system interfaces with a WRI radio receiver, which communicates with a software package installed on an industrial or standard PC used to manage and display the measurement values and archive the data.
