Functional advantages

Comprehensive detection: It can measure the length and diameter of the tool, monitor the wear and breakage of the tool, and detect the tool profile, especially suitable for special-shaped tools and multi-tooth tools.
High-precision measurement: It can detect tools with extremely small diameters. For example, some laser tool setting instruments can detect tools as small as 0.03mm or even finer. The repeat detection accuracy can reach ±0.1μm, which effectively guarantees the processing accuracy.
Thermal compensation function: It can compensate for the thermal deformation of the machine tool spindle to ensure the processing accuracy of the tool at different working temperatures.
Adapt to special tools: It can also detect super-hard tools, solving the problem of traditional contact tool setting instruments in measuring special tools.

Important Design

Optical protection system: Given the harsh working environment of the laser tool setting instrument, cutting oil, cutting fluid and chips in the machine tool often interfere with the laser signal. To this end, through a unique mechanical sealing system, such as spring structure design, the optical system is only effective during measurement to prevent the optical device from being contaminated when the air source is turned off; at the same time, a continuous compressed air flow is used to pass through the precisely designed micro-laser holes, and the micro-holes are discharged at a certain speed to remove the coolant and chips entering the laser system, providing protection for the tool setting instrument.
Drip-proof design: Use software and programs to actively identify and filter the interference of water droplets, greatly reducing the probability of false alarms.
Compressed air drying protection device: Provide clean and dry air for the laser tool setting instrument system to prevent it from being contaminated by coolant and chips, and it is easy to install.
