Contact tool setters for CNC machines

The length and diameter of the cutting tools used in CNC machines are critical parameters that need to be accurately set. If these parameters are inaccurate, even by a small margin, it can lead to errors in the final product, resulting in an increase in scrap or rework.

We offer a comprehensive range of contact tool setters, engineered for machining centres and CNC turning centres. These allow automated operation with the following benefits:

Reduced machine downtime – Enhance operational efficiency.
Repeatable measurement – Achieve precise tool setting with repeatability better than 1.00 µm 2σ.
Reliable output – Minimise manual setting inaccuracies and reduce scrap.
Breakage detection – Identify tool breakage with timely in-cycle alerts.
Increased productivity – Automate tool setting with no specialist skills required, allowing staff to be redeployed into proactive engineering roles.
