2 Technical Data The is a high-end system for dynamic, non-contact tool measurement allowing automatic checks for tool wear or breakage. A focussed laser provides accurate measurement on any tool geometry for tools as small as 0.008mm (0.0003"). Integrated cleaning jets creating a supersonic airstream clean the tool's cutting edge during measurement ensuring reliable results even in harsh environments. The durable stainless steel construction and sophisticated laser technology guarantee dependable results with the utmost precision in any production scenario. Simple mounting, rapid alignment, and easy maintenance ensure that the tool setter is always ready to use when you need it.
