About OTS

OTS (both versions)For broken tool detection and rapid tool length/diameter measurement use the OTS, Renishaw's first tool setting probe with optical transmission. The robust, compact and cable-free design allows freedom of table movement, ideal for twin pallet or rotary table machines.

The OTS is available in two versions, one with 1/2 AA batteries and the other with AA batteries. This allows the use of the same battery type in the OTS as that of the spindle probe.

OMI-2TThe OTS uses the OMI-2T optical interface for twin probing (or single probe use) and the OMI-2 for single installations only.
