SP600
Renishaw's SP600 family of analogue scanning probes offers high-performance inspection, digitising and profile scanning capability for a wide range of CMMs.
There are three, highly versatile, SP600 scanning probe systems. Each system includes the probe itself, a PC interface card and a stylus module changing rack.

Accessories
SCP600
The SCP600 is part of a flexible modular rack system that enables the user to define the number of stylus changing ports required and the size and spacing of the overall rack system. The individual SCP600s are fitted to the MRS rail (available in 400 mm, 600 mm or 1000 mm) at appropriate and easily adjustable spacing to suit the stylus arrangement required for the application.
SCR600
The SCR600 is a passive stylus change rack and so it requires no electrical connections. A mechanism in the base provides overtravel protection in the probe entry direction. The rack can house up to four stylus modules and any number of racks can be used in a system.AC1 PC card
The AC1 PC card is a 12-bit interface card that is simple to install and connects directly to the standard probe cable. It performs all probe management functions and communicates status information to the host PC. The AC1 has been superseded by the AC2.
AC2 PC card
The AC2 PC card interface supersedes the 12-bit AC1 card. It has additional capability of 16-bit resolution, Delta-Tau bus compatibility, and full PICS operation.
Extended warranty
For peace of mind a 3-year warranty is available for your new CMM products during the first 3 months from purchase. Contact your vendor.
