RSP3-6 extended reach probe
Enhanced access and inspection
capability with RSP3-6
RSP3-6
The RSP3-6 provides enhanced
capability for accessing deep bores
and inspecting features within large
parts. It is available with a range
of stylus holders for applications
requiring straight and cranked
extensions and can be used for
both touch-trigger and 2D scanning
applications.
The other RSP3 probes within
the range (RSP3-1, -2, -3, -4) can
be used for 3-axis scanning with
fixed REVO head angles during
measurement, providing the REVO
system with 3D-scanning (X, Y, Z)
with crank stylus capabilities. It also
allows different lengths of styli to be
used whilst maintaining optimum
metrology performance.
RSH3-6c-500
RSH3-6c-600
RSH3-6-600
Key benefits
Reach
Available with straight extensions up to 800 mm from REVO’s A-axis centre of rotation, and
cranked extensions up to 600 mm from REVO’s A-axis centre of rotation.
RSH3-6-700
RSH3-6-800
Accuracy
Scanning accuracy: Typically better than 10 µm form error (filtered) and 5 µm diameter error
Touch-trigger accuracy: Typically better than 3 µm form and diameter error
Part of the REVO 5-axis multi-sensor system
Long extensions combined with 5-axis movements for better part access, and multi-sensor
changing for increased flexibility.
