PH20 incorporates the industry standard TP20 touch-trigger probe, affording immediate access to a range of proven probe modules and a wide selection of trigger forces, directional sensing options and extensions to meet application requirements. The detachable modules provide crash protection and can be automatically changed using the MCR20 change rack. Current users of TP20 systems will be able to upgrade to PH20 and utilise their existing modules*. The PH20 probe head offers dramatic time savings with a unique rapid ‘inferred calibration’ technique which determines head orientation and probe position in a single operation, allowing subsequent measurement at any head angle. The system’s design requires no air supply, and it can be mounted to the CMM quill either directly or via a shank using a range of mounting adaptors.
