Renishaw non contact tool setter TR32

TRS2

Tool recognition system used for non-contact broken tool detection of solid centred cutting tools on a variety of machine tools. The unique ToolWiseTM toolrecognition electronics determine whether a tool

is present by analysing the reflective light pattern
from the rotating tool. Random light patterns created by coolant and swarf are ignored, eliminating the chance of failing to detect a broken tool due to coolantobscuring the beam. The single unit can be mounted outside the working environment, saving valuable space on the table.
