Tool measuring probes by BLUM can be used for the most varied measurement and monitoring tasks in CNC machining centres.
Tool Breakage Detection
Breakage detection of centric tools such as drills, mills, engraving tools, taps and reamers.
Tool Length Measurement
Automatic setting and wear monitoring of tools by quick and precise length measurement.
Wear compensation
Compensation of tool wear using measurements between the machining steps. The wear value is stored as an additive correction value in the tool offset memory.
Temperature compensation
Compensation of the temperature-dependent thermal behaviour of machining centres.
Coolant load
Reliable and fast measurements in coolant thanks to modern measuring mechanism and robust design.
Mass Production
Perfectly suitable for mass production under the harshest conditions.
BLUM’s tool breakage detection stops the machine automatically when a broken tool is detected. Our scrap rate has decreased by 90% on issues caused by broken tools.
