A touch probe used in the equipment being manufactured by REXXON is HEIDENHAIN's 3D touch probe series. HEIDENHAIN's 3D touch probe operates by using the optical switch as a sensor. The lens system aims the beam generated from the LED and focuses it on the differential photovoltaic cell. When the direction of the stylus changes, a differential photocell generates a trigger signal. The sensor operates without wear by using the contactless optical switch, ensuring long-term high stability, the feature of HEIDENHAIN’s touch probes. TS’s stylus is rigidly connected to the plate integrated into the three-point bearing of the probe housing. The three-point bearing ensures a physically ideal stop position.
