Scanning touch probe SP25M CMMtouch-triggercompact

The SP25M is two sensors in one, and has unrivalled flexibility due to the system’s modularity. Users can scan for form, position, and size but also take high accuracy discrete points by using a dedicated scanning module or, alternatively, use an adaptor to carry Renishaw’s TP20 range of touch‑trigger probe modules. The SP25M’s compact size and autojoint mounting makes it compatible with PH10M, PH10MQ and PH6M probe heads. It can also be mounted on an extension bar, providing excellent reach and access to part features. Five scanning modules feature a pivoting design which delivers exceptional dynamic performance and optimised high accuracy performance over the entire stylus range from 20 to 400 mm effective working length (EWL). This avoids most of the performance loss seen in other scanning probes as stylus length increases. A range of stylus holders (SH25-2A/3A/4A) is now available to offer improved crank/non-straight stylus carrying on the existing module range. For superior performance with crank/star/non-straight styli the use of the new SM25-5 module and SH25-5 stylus holder, based upon Renishaw’s SP600 and SP80 scanning technology, is recommended. Module and stylus changing is enabled using the FCR25 flexible change rack, which can be located either on the CMM bed, or in Renishaw’s MRS modular rack system.
