OMP60 Touch Probe RENISHAW

OMP60

OMP60 touch probe with optical transmission suitable for medium to large machining and mill-turn centres.

OMP60 probe is part of a new generation of optical transmission machine probes that are compatible with all Renishaw's optical receivers (both legacy and new generation). It brings the benefits of probing to a wide range of machining centres and mill-turn machines, offering users set-up time reductions of up to 90%, reduced scrap, reduced fixture costs, and improved process control.

Renishaw recommends using OMP60 with the OMI-2 receiver with modulated transmission, although OMP60 is also compatible with existing OMI and OMM / MI 12 receivers, operating in legacy mode. This means that MP7, MP8, MP9 and MP10 users can upgrade to OMP60 and benefit from its innovative features.

OMP60 features and benefits

Compact probe, measuring ø 63 mm x 76 mm long
360° infra-red transmission with 6 m typical operating range
Rejection of optical interference when used with OMI-2
Simple installation and configuration
Multiple switch-on/switch-off methods
Backward compatible with existing Renishaw receivers
Uses readily-available AA batteries

OMP60 software options

The following software packages can be used to program probing routines for work piece set-up and inspection on CNC machining centres:

EasyProbe - entry-level package for simple work piece set-up
Inspection - basic set-up and work piece inspection cycles, with automatic update of offsets
Inspection Plus - an integrated suite of inspection cycles including vector measurement
Productivity+™ Active Editor Pro - a PC-based software package with GUI, allowing the user to select features directly from an imported CAD model, making the generation of probing cycles even easier.
