MH8-TP20 Probe Kit
Manually indexable probe head with two axis indexing, enabling flexible stylus probe changing and repeatable re-orientation.
The A-axis rotates through 90° in the Z plane.The B-axis rotates through ±180°in the X-Y plane. A lever locks the head in one of up to 168 repeatable positions, set at 15° increments.
The head has an M8 thread mount for compatible touch probes and can be indexed without re-qualification, providing qualification has taken place in each position with each stylus / module combination.
