The Tool Setter is a high-precision touch sensor used for positioning cutting tools and nozzles.
It monitors the tool’s condition (length and damage) to prevent machining defects caused by wear or thermal displacement.
By enabling automatic in-machine measurement, it eliminates the need for manual setup and reduces machining errors, thus improving productivity.

◆ Wireless Dimensional Detection Switch for CNC Turret Lathes [RC-P10DB]
・Achieves zero dimensional defects for bar materials on turret lathes!
・Directly mounts on turret lathe tool holders, which are challenging to wire,
detecting bar material length before machining with a repeat accuracy of 1 µm.
・Reduces labor-intensive, full-inspection tasks.

◆ Features of the Wireless Dimensional Detection Switch

① 1 µm Repeat Accuracy
Detects the bar material length before machining with 1 µm repeat accuracy and feeds the data back to NC machines.
Effectively prevents dimensional defects and eliminates the need for full inspections.

② Noise-Resistant 2.4GHz Wireless Technology
Easily mounts on turret lathe tool holders where wiring is difficult!
Constantly searches for the best communication channel to maintain reliable connectivity, even in noisy factory environments.

◆ Examples of Improvements with the Wireless Dimensional Detection Switch
・Dimensional Detection in Turret Lathes: Detects chips between the bar material and stopper surface to prevent dimensional defects.
・Thermal Displacement Correction for Turret Lathes: Detects displacement of the machining origin due to thermal expansion, preventing dimensional defects.
