Product Description
Renishaw TS27R Ceramic Parallel Shafted Tool Datum Disk L 22 mm (TS27R ONLY)
Disc styli
These styli are ‘sections’ of highly spherical balls and are available in various diameters and thicknesses. Mounted on a threaded spigot, the discs are made from steel, ceramic or ruby. Full rotational adjustment and the ability to add a center stylus are features of the range. This makes them particularly flexible and easy to use.
Main application: These styli are used to probe undercuts and grooves within bores, which may be inaccessible to star styli. Probing with the ‘spherical edge’ of a simple disc is effectively the same as probing on or about the equator of a large stylus ball. However, only a small area of this ball surface is available for contact and hence thinner discs require angular alignment in order to ensure correct contact with the feature being probed.
Ceramic
Due to its lightness, ceramic is mainly used for long styli. It is thermally stable, for production-related applications. It can also be used as a break protection in machine tool applications
