The touch probe TC60 was especially developed for situations where the distance between the probe and the receiver is very long or where a continuous visual contact during the measuring process cannot be guaranteed. This is for instance the case for machines with large machining areas, 5-axes processing or when the probe has to be immersed within the workpiece. The signal transmission is carried out through the innovative BRC technology, a method that sets new standards in respect of speed, reliability and user-friendliness.
In contrast to conventional touch probes, it does not use the three point contact measuring principle or high sensitive switching elements. Therefore the touch probe Blum TC60 guarantees highest accuracy and superior measuring speeds in all approach directions.
