Hexagon HH-A-2.5 probe heads unveiled
Hexagon Metrology has launched its HH-A-T2.5 and HH-A-H2.5 probe heads for CMMs featuring a fully embedded controller, capacitive crash protection and the newly developed heavy duty kinematic joint.
All of the probe heads in the range benefit from a redesigned drive system including a Hirth gear for accurate positioning of the probe. The design is said to deliver a high degree of indexable positions and high rotational torque.
The HH-A-T2.5 is capable of indexing in 2.5° increments and can achieve 12,240 unique positions, says Hexagon. The head is fitted with a kinematic joint (TKJ).
The HH-A-H2.5 is capable of indexing in 2.5° increments and can achieve 20,736 unique positions due to increased rotation of the A-axis (±180°), while the head is fitted with the heavy duty kinematic joint (HDKJ).
Both the TKJ and HDKJ can be connected to Hexagon's 'Multi-wire' to give multi-sensor support.
