Featuring third-generation technology, the new F100 and F100-10C models set a new standard for CNC machine tool precision and reflect Renishaw’s commitment to advancing metrology for precision manufacturers.
Unmatched Precision for High-Accuracy Measurement
With an optimised system design, NC4+ Blue F100 models achieve industry-leading repeatability of ±0.1 µm 2σ, ensuring exceptional precision for tool measurement. Tool features and defects as small as 5 µm can be detected, allowing accurate measurement of ultra-fine tools and supporting even the most delicate machining operations. By identifying the smallest tool defects before machining, the systems help ensure a good surface finish, enhancing overall part quality.
Compact, Efficient, and Sustainable Design
A compact footprint makes the F100 models a perfect fit for machines with tight working envelopes, allowing manufacturers to optimise space while maintaining high-performance tool setting capabilities.
Renishaw has enhanced the efficiency and optimised the air flow in the NC4+ Blue F100 models. It has reduced the tool setter’s barrier air consumption by over 50%, lowering the required energy for air compression and cutting operational costs for manufacturers. This advancement reflects Renishaw’s continued commitment to improving the sustainable performance of its products.
Advanced Technology for Reliable Non-Contact Tool Setting
As part of Renishaw's NC4+ Blue laser tool setter portfolio, the F100 models are designed to deliver high-precision, high-speed non-contact tool setting and tool breakage detection. Featuring industry-first blue laser technology, all NC4+ Blue systems detect tool defects down to micron levels, aiding the production of 'right first time' parts. The NC4+ Blue MicroHole™ aperture and PassiveSeal™ mechanism protect the system in harsh environments, guaranteeing reliable performance even under challenging conditions.
Enhanced Automation and Digital Integration
Renishaw's advanced macro software for the NC4+ Blue allows manufacturers to automate tool measurement and set-up processes. With a wide range of non-contact tool setting cycles, manufacturers can streamline operations, increase efficiency, and achieve consistently high-quality results.
