Abstract of CNC Probe As the “sensing nerve” of CNC machine tools, the probe drives the qualitative change of machining accuracy and efficiency through real-time measurement and data feedback. This article systematically analyzes the technical characteristics of the four major categories of trigger, scanning, tool detection and wireless probes, and combines application cases in aerospace, automotive […]

1. Introduction: From tradition to innovation, the necessity of laser tool setter In traditional machining, tool wear, thermal deformation and human error are the main bottlenecks restricting machining accuracy. Although mechanical tool setters can achieve basic calibration, contact measurement is prone to secondary wear, and the accuracy is limited by the mechanical structure (the error […]

1. Trigger mechanism: Evolution from mechanical springs to photoelectric sensors Limitations of mechanical triggering: The trigger force of traditional spring probes needs to be ≥0.5N, which increases the risk of deformation of thin-walled parts by 12%. Innovative solution: Using infrared photoelectric triggering, the trigger force is ≤0.02N, which is suitable for precision machining of aviation […]

1. Ruby probe: the golden balance of hardness and wear resistance Material science verification: The Mohs hardness of ruby ​​(α-Al₂O₃) reaches level 9, second only to diamond, and its wear rate is only 1/50 of that of cemented carbide. Chemical corrosion resistance: In a cutting fluid environment, the annual corrosion thickness of ruby ​​is less […]

1. The “digital eye” of precision manufacturing: a breakthrough in the principle of probe detection technology The probe detection system realizes real-time digital monitoring of the processing process through a four-dimensional closed loop of “contact-sensing-analysis-compensation” (Figure 1). Research by the National Physical Laboratory (NPT) of the United Kingdom shows that this technology can reduce the […]

Introduction In the field of CNC machine tool machining, traditional wired probes are difficult to meet the needs of high-speed and high-precision machining due to complex wiring and signal delay. According to the [China Industrial Control Network 2023 Industry Report], 75% of machining errors are caused by delayed response of the measurement system. Infrared probes […]

I. Introduction Explanation of CNC Machine A CNC machine, or Computer Numerical Control machine, is a sophisticated automated tool. It operates based on pre – programmed computer software that dictates the movement and actions of the machine’s components. This software precisely controls axes of motion, spindle speed, feed rates, and other parameters, enabling the machine […]

II. Types of CNC Tool Holders A. Collet Chucks Collet chucks are among the most commonly used tool holders. They are highly versatile and are mainly used for holding drills, reamers, and taps. Their design allows for a tight grip on the tool shank, ensuring minimal runout and accurate machining. Collet chucks typically come in […]

Introduction In the world of precision manufacturing, accuracy and efficiency are paramount. One tool that has become indispensable in achieving these goals is the CNC Z probe. This innovative device automates the process of setting the zero point on a CNC machine, ensuring that every cut, engraving, or machining operation is executed with pinpoint accuracy. […]

What Is a Digital Logic Probe and Why Is It Important? A digital logic probe is a handheld device designed to test the logic state of digital signals in electronic circuits. It typically features a probe tip, LED indicators, and sometimes a display screen. When the probe tip touches a point in a circuit, the […]
