Renishaw plc New Mills, Wotton-under-Edge, Gloucestershire GL12 8JR United Kingdom TP20 touch trigger probe system Kinematic probe system with module changing The TP20 touch trigger probe enables manual or automatic stylus changing without re-qualification. This allows complex part measurement, where a range of stylus configurations is needed to access all features on the part. Modules offering a range of trigger forces allow the probe performance to be accurately matched to the measurement task. A set of probe extensions is also available, as is a 6-way module, allowing the inspection of features with restricted access. The TP20 can be used on a wide range of Renishaw’s manual or motorised probe heads, either by direct mounting using the standard M8 thread or alternatively, by using a PAA adaptor to connect with the autojoint on the head. The optional MCR20 module changing rack can store up to six probe modules for automatic changing under measurement program control. The probe is automatically disabled during the change cycle. The MSR1 can store up to 6 probe modules for manual stylus changing and safekeeping when not in use. Reduced cycle times Reduced cycle times are achieved through fast stylus changing without re-qualification. Highly repeatable magnetic coupling between probe module and probe body This enables the exchange of modules without the need to re-qualify the stylus tip giving significant time savings. Optimised probe and stylus performance Probe and stylus performance are optimised with seven specialised probe modules. Industry standard metrology performance The TP20 brings a range of new benefits over the TP2 probe to both manual and DCC CMMs and can easily be retrofitted to existing TP2 installations. Standard M8 screw connector in the probe body This offers direct fitting to all CMMs with a Renishaw PH1, MH8 or PH10T probe head. Fitment to PH10M and MIH is simply achieved with a PAA probe adaptor. Crash protection TP20 modules have overtravel in all directions. The magnetic mounting provides additional crash protection in X and Y.
