Probing systems for CNC machine tools

Introduction

The invention of the touch trigger probe in the early 1970s revolutionised the development of the CMM (co-ordinate measuring machine) as the industry standard for 3D measurement. Although the potential for applying probe routines on machine tools was quickly realised, it was not until the mid-1980s and development of more sophisticated machine controls, that probing became adopted by the worlds largest machine tool builders. Historically, there had been a marked reluctance by users of machine tools to use probing; typical objections included increased cycle times and machine tools are for cutting not for measuring. Both sentiments were largely based on misconceptions as to the real applications and benefits of probing, and also entrenched attitudes to improvements in methods of machine tool operation. Today, the acceptance of quality control in the production environment, and drive towards maximising machine productivity, has finally seen probing accepted as standard practice in the field of production engineering.

Part set-up Probing eliminates the need for expensive fixtures and manual setting with dial indicators. Probes are spindle-mounted on machining centres and turret-mounted on lathes, providing the following benefits:

Reduced machine downtime Automatic fixture, part alignment and rotary axis set-up Elimination of manual setting errors Reduced scrap Increased productivity and batch size flexibility

Part inspection Spindle and turret-mounted probes can also be used for in-cycle gauging and first-off inspection manual gauges rely on operator skill and the removal of parts to CMMs is not always practical. Benefits include:

In-cycle part measurement with automatic offset correction Increased confidence in unmanned machining First-off inspection with automatic offset update Reduced machine downtime from awaiting first-off results

ApplicationsTool setting Using slip gauges and entering offset data manually takes time and is prone to operator error. Tool setting probe systems are easily installed on machining centres and CNC (computer numerically controlled) lathes and allow automated operation with the following benefits:

Significant time savings with reduced machine downtime Accurate tool length and diameter measurement Automatic tool offset calculation and correction Elimination of manual setting errors In-cycle tool breakage detection
