Precision styli are designed to complement Renishaw's probing systems, to ensure optimum performance. The standard range comprises over 500 parts, with custom variants available on request. Renishaw also has an extensive and experienced applications network that can provide you with full technical support and guidance regarding styli design and their use within your unique application.
Renishaw's comprehensive range of styli can be used on a variety of systems. These includes Renishaw's CMM, machine tool, and scanning probes. Additionally, they can be used with sensors from other manufacturers.
Mass production of automotive components relies heavily on repeatable processes of inspections and quality checks during manufacturing.
Although the styli of the inspection probes may seem like a small detail of the process, they are a crucial part of the measurement since they make contact with the component, allowing the probe mechanism to move and the generated signal to allow the measurement to be taken.
Renishaw takes into account the small details, such as the proper use of the probes. When choosing a stylus, it is essential to consider the features and materials of the component to be measured. Additionally, it is important to consider the probing system in use. Stylus properties such as material, size, rigidity and sphericity can significantly influence measurement performance and system maintenance requirements.
