News release: New off-axis measurement in the CARTO software suite transforms 5-axis machine tool calibration (doc)

File size: 172 kB Language: English

Renishaw has incorporated its new Off-axis rotary measurement mode into the CARTO software suite, providing a single source for testing off-axis measurement using the XR20 rotary axis calibrator and XL-80 laser system. The latest release of CARTO, version 4.7, streamlines the measurement of rotary positioning accuracy for 5-axis machine tools, where the XR20 rotary axis calibrator cannot always be mounted on the centre of rotation.
