Your Metrol (Japan) distributor in EuropeTool setters
Tool setters for CNC lathes
Automatic tool length and offset measurement on turning centres
Metrol tool setters for CNC lathes replace manual touch-off with an automatic, repeatable measurement of tool tip position. The amplifier-less design puts a sealed mechanical contact inside the working area, so coolant, oil and chips do not affect the signal. Arm-type and fixed models cover the common turret and gang-tool configurations.
Key characteristics
- Repeatability from 1 µm
- Amplifier-less construction — no electronics in the machine zone
- IP67/IP68 sealing against coolant, oil and chips
- Swing-arm and fixed mounting variants
- Direct signal to the CNC skip/measurement input
Typical applications
- Tool length and X/Z offset setting on turning centres
- Tool wear and breakage detection between operations
- Unattended and lights-out turning
