CNC Edge Finder 3D Touch Probe Accuracy Sensor Dual Modes Durable Alloy Construction

Product overview A precision 3D edge finder built from 7075 aluminium alloy with anodized surfaces for durable, lowdeformation performance. Designed for both online automatic centring with machine control and offline use as a photoelectric centring rod, it provides reliable coordinate locating for edges, holes, studs, angles, and corners with 0.01 mm repeatability. Key benefits Accurate edge and feature locating: 0.01 mm repeatability helps produce consistent workpiece references for machining and measuring tasks. Dual operation modes: supports online automatic centring when connected to a control system and offline use as a photoelectric centring rod for manual setups. Durable construction: 7075 aluminium alloy body with anodized finish resists deformation and provides long service life. Replaceable probe: standard 20 mm probe length is replaceable to suit specific setups and wear. Quick integration: includes a 2 m connecting cable for straightforward connection to measurement or control systems. Main specifications Material: 7075 aluminium alloy, anodized surfaces Outer diameter: approximately 39 mm / 1.54 in Probe length: approximately 20 mm / 0.79 in, standard and replaceable Probe diameter: approximately 2 mm / 0.08 in Clamping diameter: approximately 6 mm / 0.24 in Repeatability: approximately 0.01 mm X and Y axes allowable swing: approximately 3 mm / 0.12 in; exceeding this stroke will cause damage Z axis allowable swing: approximately 1.5 mm / 0.06 in; exceeding this stroke will cause damage Operating voltage: 630 V; damage can occur if operated above the rated voltage or under insufficient voltage Waterproof rating: IP43; not suitable for use in environments with coolant or heavy liquid exposure Connection: supplied data cable, approximately 2 m / 6.56 ft Functional notes and limitations Do not subject the unit to knocks or impacts that can cause irreversible damage and reduce accuracy. Do not exceed the specified X, Y, or Z stroke limits; movement beyond these limits can damage the probe or sensing mechanism. The device is not designed to operate in coolant or heavy splash conditions due to its IP43 rating. Observe the specified voltage range. Excess voltage may burn the electronics and insufficient voltage may prevent operation. Included in the package 1 x 3D edge finder 1 x connecting cable (approx. 2 m) 1 x wrench 1 x storage box Typical applications and scenarios 1) CNC machining setup: Use the edge finder connected to the machine control for automatic centring and coordinate recording before cutting operations, reducing manual probing time and improving setup consistency. 2) Manual inspection and layout: Use offline as a photoelectric centring rod to locate part edges, holes, and corners during manual inspection or layout work where a machine connection is not available. 3) Fixture verification and retrofitting: Check and record reference points on fixtures or jigs during assembly or retrofit work to confirm alignment and repeatable positioning. Compatibility and integration Designed to work with systems that accept a standard data output through a wired connection. Connect GND and the output data line as required by the host system to enable automatic centring and coordinate recording. Clamping diameter of approximately 6 mm must match the toolholder or adaptor used for mounting. Care and maintenance Keep the device dry and from coolant exposure. the probe if worn or damaged; the probe is designed to be replaceable. Handle carefully and store in the supplied box when not in use to protect accuracy and prolong service life.
