Product Description
Star StyliStar Styli
This multi-tip star stylus can be used where contact with different surfaces is needed without changing the stylus. Ruby is regarded as the industry standard for stylus tips. It is one of the hardest materials available and suitable for most applications. Due to adhesive pickup, ruby tips are not recommended for scanning aluminium parts.
These stylus clusters provide you with multiple-tip probing of complex features and bores. Four or five ruby ball systems are mounted rigidly on a stainless steel center. Three standard sizes are offered - alternatively, you can create custom-made star styli using a 5-way stylus center and any of the genuine Renishaw stylus range.
Star styli can be used to inspect a variety of different features. Their use can reduce inspection cycle times by allowing multiple probing, minimizing the need to move the probe to extreme points of internal features such as the sides or grooves in a bore. Using star styli also allows effective probing in the -Z direction (upwards) direction when using a 5-way probe, provided that the stylus tips extend beyond the diameter of the probe body. The "span" of star styli is taken from ball center to ball center.
