TP7M / TP7M EP touch-trigger probes

Electronic strain gauge based probe for excellent repeatability and high precision 3D form measurement

  • TP7MCompatible with PH10M PLUS / PH10MQ PLUS or PH6M heads via the autojoint connector for fast and repeatable probe changing when used with a Renishaw autochange rack system
  • 6-way measuring capability (±X, ±Y, ±Z)
  • Stylus reach up to 180 mm (7.09 in) using GF range
  • Zero reseat errors and no lobing effect
  • TP7M EP is an enhanced performance probe, capable of achieving a 3D accuracy of < 0.6 μm tested to ISO 10360 Pt 2
  • TP7M and TP7M EP requires the PI 7-3 interface which has two switchable levels of sensitivity to accommodate differing applications
