Hexagon Metrology Services, Ltd. New sensor for the Leitz Reference

Leitz Reference Xi with LSP-X1h
LSP-X1h

A new sensor is available for the Leitz Reference series of coordinate measuring machines in the form of the LSP-X1h. It accepts extremely long styli: capable of accommodating styli lengths of 20 to 225 mm in the axial orientation and up to 50 mm in the lateral orientation. The maximum stylus weight is 33 g. The sensor attaches to the TESASTAR-m indexable articulated probe heads. Thanks to the articulated probe heads, long styli and a small external diameter, the LSP-X1h reaches every feature on the part. The LSP-X1h is compatible with the latest Leitz coordinate measuring machines: the Leitz Reference Xi and Leitz Reference XT.

Like all the other Leitz probe heads, the LSP-X1h combines different measuring technologies in one sensor: single point probing and self-centering measuring are just as possible as high-precision, high-speed scanning for rapid, very accurate form and contour measurements on parts. When Leitz 3D probe systems are used to inspect a part, they measure simultaneously in the X, Y and Z directions and automatically perpendicular to the part surface. The deflection of the styli is calculated and taken into account by the measuring software.
