Digitizing Probe

About the Digitizing Probe

Tormach offers an electronic Digitizing Probe which enables faster setup of jobs on the machine. The probe is used to set the work offset values corresponding to the position of the work on the table or in the vise. It has a standard TTS (¾") shank and is best used in the ¾" R8 collet (PN 30146). The probe cable has a male 5 pin DIN connector. This connector will join to the auxiliary socket provided on the PCNC operators control panel. The Tormach Digitizing Probe also comes with a sturdy storage case.
