The OMP600 is a compact, high-accuracy touch probe that offers all the benefits of automated job set-up as well as the ability to measure complex 3D part geometries on CNC machining centres, including multi-tasking machines. With patented strain gauge technology and interference-resistant optical transmission, the OMP600 provides superior performance found in all Renishaw high-accuracy probes. Reduce scrap, enhance productivity and increase profits – Renishaw machine tool probes can keep your machining process under control. Superior 3D accuracy: delivers unrivalled submicron performance when measuring complex 3D shapes and contours. Ultra-low trigger force: unmatched low trigger force for delicate work helps eliminate surface and form damage. Robustly engineered: Robust, even in the harshest environments, providing reliable measurement and long service life. Inspect difficult parts: improved accuracy when using long and custom styli means difficult parts can be measured with ease. Interference resistance optical transmission Optical systems require a clear 'line-of-sight' between the probe and receiver, meaning they are most suited to small and medium machines without complex fixturing. A Renishaw optical transmission system uses infrared technology for communication between the probe and the CNC control. The probe receives machine control signals and transmits status signals. In operating mode, it transmits probe information, including battery status, to the receiver. Renishaw systems use modulated optical transmission to reject light interference from other sources and ensure reliable communications.
