NC3

About NC3

The NC3 is a compact 2-axis non-contact tool setting probe, with broken tool detection capability.

Tools as small as Ø0.2 mm can be measured anywhere along the laser beam and set-up is more simple than focused laser systems as there is no focal point to identify.

The NC3 offers high repeatability, low air consumption and a rapid tool-breakage detection cycle.

The NCi-5 interface is required for use with NC3 and other non-contact tool setting systems. The NC3 is operated using Renishaw's macro-based non-contact tool setting software.

Software for NC3

Renishaw's macro-based non-contact tool setting software is used to easily program tool setting and broken tool detection routines.
