RENISHAW RSP3-1 REVO 3-D Scanning Probes
INTRODUCTION
The RSP3 range of probes gives REVO-2 the ability to carry cranked stylus arrangements while maintaining optimum metrology performance. The probes can be used for both 3-D scanning (X, Y, Z) and touch-trigger applications. They enable accurate scanning measurement with effective stylus lengths ranging from 20 mm to 394 mm. The RSP3 range is used for 3-axis scanning with fixed REVO-2 head angles during measurement. Each probe is designed to provide optimized accuracy and contact force over a specified stylus range. Consequently, the RSH3 stylus holders are intended for use only with their respective RSP3 probes.
Key benefits
Workpiece access
REVO’s infinite positioning and crank stylus carrying capabilities provide better part access. Each RSP3 probe has been optimised for maximun performance over their specific stylus range and crank carrying capabilities.
High accuracy 3-D scanning
RSP3 probes can be used with both straight and cranked styli for high accuracy 3-D scanning.
Part of the REVO 5-axis multisensor system
RSP3 probes are automatically interchangeable with all other probes available for REVO-2, including surface finish analysis and non-contact inspection probes. As a result, the system provides the optimum tool to measure multiple features all on one CMM platform.
