Tool measuring probes by BLUM can be used for the most varied measurement and monitoring tasks in CNC machining centres.
Breakage detection of centric tools such as drills, mills, engraving tools, taps and reamers.
Automatic setting and wear monitoring of tools by quick and precise length measurement.
Compensation of tool wear using measurements between the machining steps. The wear value is stored as an additive correction value in the tool offset memory.
Compensation of the temperature-dependent thermal behaviour of machining centres.
Reliable and fast measurements in coolant thanks to modern measuring mechanism and robust design.
Perfectly suitable for mass production under the harshest conditions.
BLUM’s tool breakage detection system stops the machine immediately when a defective tool is discovered. Our scrap rate has decreased by 90% on issues caused by broken tools.
