Electronic Auto Tool Length Setting Probing Sensor Setter for CNC Machine

Electronic Auto Tool Length Setting Probing Sensor Setter for CNC Machine

This CNC tool length sensor is an automatic tool setting gauge tool touch sensor for CNC engraving drilling milling machines, especially for auto tool changer CNC machines. It is easy to found in A.T.C. CNC routers and CNC milling machines, also Amastone stoneworking CNC machines.
The CNC auto tool height setter is typically used to measure and set tool lengths and Z-axis work offsets. When contacted by a tool it works with the machine control software to record position. The tool setter enables fast and accurate measurement of tools and setup of jobs. 

The touch sensor for automatic tool length offset setting, all tooling is pre-set on the tool setting bench, away from the machine. Automated functions within the machine allow for operator commands such as probe and set one specific tool, probe all tools in the magazine, probe for tool breakage, etc.

We have NC(normal close) and NO(normal open) two models for supply, please choose the suitable one you need.

GZ-66-NC(normal close) tool length setter parameters:
Repeatability: 0.001mm (operating speed 50-500mm/m)
Contact force: 1.5N (vertical)
Contact Material: tungsten steel alloy
Contact lifetime: 3 million times
Protective structure: IP67
Rated voltage: DC24V 20mA (resistance load)                       
Cable: oil resistant /4 cores
Application: CNC router, CNC milling machine, CNC machining center, Amastone stoneworking CNC, etc.          
Warranty: 1.5 years
Normal closed model widely used with Taiwan SYNTEC, LNC, NC STUDIO, weihong brand control system, etc.
This Normally Closed probe has 2 contacts, each of them has 2 wires that create a simple electrical contact. These electrical contacts are NC (Normally Closed) that becomes OPEN when the tool setter is touched. The first contact is the measure contact and the second contact is the security contact. One wire has to be connected to your CN input and the other wire has to be connected to a power supply with a voltage that your CN input can manage. So this is the reason why this tool setter is compatible with any kind of CN board as Heidenhain, Fanuc, OSAI, Siemens, Mach3, Twintec Colibrì, QEM Rosetta…

GZ-66-NO(normal open) electronic tool setter parameters:
Repeatability: 0-0.001mm (operating speed 50-1000mm/m)
Contact force: 1.5N (vertical)
Contact Material: tungsten steel alloy
Contact lifetime: 5 million times
Protective structure: IP68
Rated voltage: DC24V 20mA (resistance load)                       
Cable: oil resistant /6 cores
Application: CNC router, CNC milling machine, CNC machining center, etc.        
Warranty: 3 years
Normal open model widely used with Mitsubishi, Fanuc, and Siemens control systems.

Applications of the tool setter:
1, Presetting tool length
2, Tool off-set measuring
3, Tool wear detection

Benefits for the machines with auto tool setting probing:
1, CNC system will quickly identify component working height and pre-set tool lengths accordingly. Without a tool setter, the worker has to measure manually the length of the tool and save it. This for every tool used. With the tool setter, this activity is faster and more precise because made automatically.
2, These functions drastically reduce set up time keeping the CNC Router in production and downtime to the minimum.
3, Damage and wear to vacuum spoil boards are kept to a minimum. It also has the advantage of setting work offsets with no risk of chipping the edges of high-performance carbide mills.
