Omni-Tech is dedicated to helping you increase productivity with our skillful service and total CMM support. Omni-Tech is proud to represent CMM tools from Renishaw, which are the highest quality precision laser measuring equipment, tools and accessories – including the 5-axis touch-trigger system from Renishaw.
PH20 5-axis touch-trigger system from Renishaw
Now, 5-axis motion technology is available for touch trigger applications on CMM structures of all sizes. The PH20 5-axis
touch-trigger system is an innovative measurement product
from Renishaw that is improving the performance of CMM
touch-trigger probes. You can order this 5-axis system now
from Omni-Tech.
The PH20 5-axis system allows measurement points to be taken by moving only the head, rather than the CMM structure. With 5-axis motion, the touch trigger probes use the rapid rotary motion of the head to take the points fast, with better repeatability and accuracy. With the PH20 5-axis touch-trigger system, the time formerly spent indexing the head is eliminated. 5-axis motion typically results in a 3-fold improvement over conventional, non-touch trigger systems. In fact, the PH20 guarantees successful access with its limitless positioning. Plus, the 5-axis motion minimizes stylus changes. With the 5-axis system, the 5-axis motion allows measurement of larger parts through simultaneous motion. The space required for head rotation is minimized. The PH20 avoids stylus collisions through automatic alignment with the part coordinate system.

Faster calibration with the PH20 5-axis touch-trigger systemThe PH20 5-axis touch-trigger system has a unique calibration technique, which allows subsequent measurement within a single operation. This orientation can save a significant amount of time when accumulated.
Touch trigger probes improve metrology performance. Here’s how:
- Repeatability is better
- Improved accuracy from using feature orientation-based calibration and ‘head touches’
- No air supply is required for mechanical bearings
- Compact design is suitable for a wide range of CMMs
- No requirement to modify existing programs for most index
head compatibility
