SMART 5-AXIS MEASUREMENT WITH XM-60 MULTI-AXIS CALIBRATOR

The Off-axis rotary measurement mode in the CARTO Capture application now features the XM-60 multi-axis calibrator, enabling measurement of all axes of a 5-axis machine tool with a single laser system. This expanded capability simplifies the process of calibrating rotary axes where the Renishaw XR20 rotary axis calibrator cannot always be mounted on the centre of rotation.

The Renishaw XR20 rotary axis calibrator has become established as the market-leading solution for direct measurement of rotary errors for stages, jigs, and machine tools. The off-axis rotary measurement mode in the CARTO software suite provides XM-60 multi-axis calibrator users the ability to quickly capture, and analyse data, from all rotary axes, of any configuration.

Renishaw will be demonstrating the CARTO software suite, its premium digital ecosystem for its laser calibration products, at the EMO Hannover 2023 exhibition (hall 6, stand B32), Germany, from 18th – 23rd September. CARTO contains three applications; Capture to collect laser measurement data, Explore for powerful analysis to international standards and Compensate for quick and easy error correction.
