HP arms and RP3 tool
HPMA arms and RP3 tool setting probe
For tool measuring and broken tool detection on 2-axis and 3-axis CNC lathes.
HPRA
High-precision removable arm
A ‘plug-in’ arm which is manually placed in the machine when tool setting is performed, and removed once the process is completed.
HPMA
High-precision motorised arm
An electrically powered arm. Rapid actuation allows in‑process tool setting and broken tool detection without the need for operator intervention.
HPPA
High-precision pull-down arm
The HPPA uses an innovative rotary device which automatically locks the arm into a repeatable kinematic location, with no additional adjustment or locking device required.
HPGA
High-precision generic arm
A highly repeatable motorised solution for tool setting and workpiece inspection with improved robustness and adaptability on grinding machines and CNC lathes.
RP3 tool setting probe
Tool setting kinematic probe for lathes and turning centres that can also be used for workpiece set-up. Suitable for OEM installation into purpose-built holders. It utilises a universal M4 stylus mounting, allowing the full range of Renishaw styli to be used. Connection from the probe terminals to the interface cable is made easy with the availability of an OEM kit. The short body provides significant advantages in tool setting applications and the high performance of traditional Renishaw touch-trigger probes.
