Automated machine tool probing and tool measurement can fine tune and correct manufacturing processes during production. Identifying the accuracy of parts on-machine rather than in a Quality Control lab, eliminates potential CMM bottlenecks and reduces rework and scrap. Ultimately, manufacturers can raise the quality of their output while reducing costs and increasing profits.

This (NC4+ Blue) improves the diffraction effects and optimises laser beam geometry. Ultimately, it enables Standard Tool & Mold to measure tools, including very small tools, while minimising tool-to-tool errors — a key consideration for a company that is using a wide range of cutting tools.

Testimonials and case studies
Time taken to make changes, for example to align a vice or set up a workpiece, means time that the machine is not running. In such a small business, lost time is costly, so we started looking for a way to increase productivity, reduce turnaround times and reduce human error.
Hammond Engineering (Australia)
We didn't understand the importance of probing when we were first introduced to it. We now realise that it is vital. We have had five machining centres, all of which have been equipped with Renishaw probing systems. We can't see any logical reason now to buy a CNC machine tool without probing.
