Tool setters
Tool setters for CNC milling machines
Z-axis tool setting and breakage detection on machining centres
For machining centres and milling machines, Metrol tool setters measure tool length directly on the table and detect breakage after each operation. Fixed and swing-arm models mount permanently inside the machine, so the measurement cycle costs seconds and needs no operator intervention.

Key characteristics
- Repeatability from 1 µm
- Rugged sealed body for milling environments
- Fixed, retractable and swing-arm variants
- Compatible with standard CNC skip-signal inputs
- Long mechanical life with no calibration drift
Typical applications
- Automatic Z-zero and tool length measurement
- Tool breakage detection in unattended production
- Multi-pallet and pallet-pool machining cells
