The PH10M-iQ PLUS is a general purpose, versatile unit designed specifically for use on direct computer controlled (DCC) CMMs and incorporates the following features:

  • 720 indexing positions
  • 0.4 μm indexing repeatability
  • 7.5° indexing steps in both axes
  • 300 mm extension bar capability *
  • Inferred qualification when mounted vertically or horizontally **

* NOTE: 450 mm extension bar capability with special order carbon fibre extensions.

** The inferred calibration procedure is different depending on the chosen orientation of the head.

WARNING: The components of the PH10M-iQ PLUS system are not compatible with PH9 and PH20 system components. No attempt should be made to connect the PH10M-iQ PLUS system components to a PH9 or PH20 system as this will result in damage to the product.

NOTE: On initial set-up of a PH10M-iQ PLUS system, a head localisation is required. Please refer to the software providers' documentation for more information.

CAUTION: Please ensure that the head is mounted as rigidly as possible in the CMM's quill. Avoid collisions between the head, workpiece or CMM bed, ensuring that the head is moved clear of any obstruction before requesting a position change. Do not apply force to any moving parts of the head and do not move the head axes by hand when locked or unlocked.
