LaserControl NT | Support Systems Unbeatably precise and reliable. In order to achieve the greatest possible accuracy in measuring tools in the machining centre, Blum recommends the use of compact support systems. The Micro Compact NT system is by default available up to a length of 1000 mm. The exceedingly compact Nano NT was designed especially for the requirements of high-end machines in micromachining. Single Cutting Edge Monitoring Tool Breakage Detection Tool Length Measurement Tool Radius Measurement Tool Form Measurement Axes Compensation Tool Form Monitoring Nano NT – for microtools...

LaserControl NT | Single Systems Modular and precise – Micro Single NT and Mini NT are the single versions from the LaserControl NT series. The separation of transmitter and receiver allows for a flexible integration into a wide variety of machine types. They are, for instance, used if the installation of support systems is impossible due to the design of the machine tool. NT Technology Tool Breakage Detection Tool Length Measurement Tool Radius Measurement Single Cutting Edge Monitoring Axes Compensation Mini NT – highly precise single system Indispensable – the Blum pneumatic unit 100% reliable...

LaserControl NT-H 3D | Combined System The all-rounder for any tool. LaserControl NT-H 3D is a compact and highly precise system for measuring of the whole range of tools in turning-milling centres. The measurement of milling tools via laser can be carried out contactless under nominal rotation speed. Turning tools can be measured quickly and safely with the adapted touch probe. Thanks to built-in blowing nozzles even coolant or chips on tool or stylus are not a problem.
