The Renishaw TRS2 non‑contact tool breakage detection system provides fast, reliable laser‑based monitoring to reduce waste and increase machining…
The TRS2 is a single‑side, non‑contact laser system that monitors solid tools in vertical, horizontal, gantry and multi‑function machines. It is mounted outside the machining area, saving valuable space, and uses a laser beam reflected from the rotating tool to assess its condition.
When a broken tool is detected, the system issues an alarm and can stop the machine or trigger an automatic tool change, dramatically reducing non‑productive time and scrap rates while improving overall process reliability. This manual is written in Chinese.
| Laser detection dwell time per tool | ≈ 1 second |
|---|---|
| Laser reflection point above tool tip | ≈ 3 mm |
| Potential time savings vs. contact detection | up to 69 % |
It emits a laser beam that is reflected by the rotating tool; the reflected intensity is analyzed by the ToolWise™ technology to determine if the tool is intact.
The system generates a “tool breakage” alarm and can stop the machine or trigger an automatic tool change to replace the tool.
Detection time can be reduced by up to 69 % compared with traditional contact methods.
Yes, it can be installed on vertical and horizontal machining centers, gantry machines and multi‑function machines, mounted outside the machining area.
