The modular design of the new bidirectional probe, m&h IRP 25.50, is one of its standout features. It allows for the use of various cross-probes, extensions, and measuring units, making it easy to adapt the probe to future needs and different machine tool applications. There are plans to develop additional measuring devices and sensors that will be compatible with this system.
With a single IRR91.50 receiver, the latest generation of m&h probes can operate two IRP25.50 probes simultaneously. This functionality is particularly beneficial for measuring both spindles at the same time in double-spindle machines.
Key applications of this system include:
– Establishing the workpiece zero point
– Determining the position of the workpiece
– Verifying the dimensions of the workpiece
– Concurrent measuring on machines with two spindles
Advantages:
The future-proof IRP25.50 is compatible with several measurement systems.
The P41.00 features a three-leg design for the measuring unit, while the temperature measuring unit TP44.10 MY21.00 is equipped with a hemisphere system.
It incorporates a patented dual-probe technology developed by M&H.
The high-speed pre-positioning and ITE technology (Intelligent Trigger Evaluation) eliminate disruptions caused by extraneous light. Additionally, HDR+ technology (high data rate+) supports third-party protocols from competitors.
