MACHINE TOOL LASER SYSTEMS

Laser Applications

• Tool Breakage Detection
  By passing a tool through the beam at a high feedrate, the tool can be checked for breakage with minimal effect on cycle time

• Multiple Cutting Edge Check
  The entire edge of each insert or flute can be measured for damage. Even odd shaped tools such as ball end mills, beveled cutters and form tools can be checked

• Measuring of Length and Radius
  A Reference Pin
  B Flight Circle (runout)
  C Centric tools, ie: twist drills, tap drills
  D Eccentric tools, ie: milling cutters
  E Indexable insert cutters
  F Preferred measuring position (beam center)
  G Measuring position for tool radius
  H Measuring position for tool length
  I Position to check cutting edge
