Scanning Probes
SP25M Scanning Probe
At only 25 mm in diameter, and with a range of scanning and touch-trigger modules, the SP25M is the world's most compact and versatile scanning probe system.
About the SP25M
The SP25M comprises two sensors in a single housing. Users can switch between a choice of five scanning modules (which can carry M3 styli with lengths from 20 mm to 400 mm) and an adaptor module that is compatible with Renishaw's TP20 range of probe modules. This capability enables scanning and touch-trigger probing in a single probe system.
The SP25M's compact size and autojoint mounting makes it compatible with the PH10M/MQ and PH6M probe heads. It can also be mounted on a multiwired extension bar. Together, these combinations permit excellent reach and access to part features.
Features and benefits
World's smallest scanning probe at only 25 mm in diameter.
Excellent metrology - isolated optical sensing and 3rd order polynomial compensation.
Five modules provide optimal performance across a range of stylus lengths (up to 400 mm).
Two sensors in one - scanning and touch-trigger.
Crash protection and simple stylus changing.
Fast and simple probe calibration cycle.
Ideal for profile and form measurement.
Suitable for use on motorized indexing heads for greater flexibility and shorter scanning cycle times.
Simple and robust design for greater reliability - no motors or locking mechanisms
SP80 and SP80H
The SP80 and SP80H quill-mounted scanning probes provide class-leading scanning performance, as well as the most flexible use of long styli for maximum productivity.
About the SP80 & SP80H
The SP80 and SP80H probes both use the same design concepts. They are a passive scanning probe that uses digital scale and readheads with 20 nm resolution. These provide exceptional scanning performance, even with long styli.
Kinematic stylus changing with SH80 allows for repeatable re-location of the stylus, optimises stylus arrangements for each feature, and overcomes the need for re-qualification. Fitment of the SH80K allows the probe to be powered on and off without needing to be rehomed on power up.

Features and benefits
The SP80 and SP80H quill-mounted scanning probes provide class-leading scanning performance, as well as the most flexible use of long styli for maximum productivity.
The SP80 mounts to standard vertical quills and can carry styli up to 800 mm long and 500 g mass, including star configurations. Whereas the SP80H mounts to a horizontal quill and can carry styli up to 500 mm long and 300 g mass, including star configurations.
SP600 Scanning Probe
Renishaw's SP600 family of analogue scanning probes offers high-performance inspection, digitising and profile scanning capability for a wide range of CMMs.
About the SP600
There are three, highly versatile, SP600 scanning probe systems. Each system includes the probe itself, a PC interface card and a stylus module changing rack.
Features and benefits
High speed scanning up to 300 mm/s, fast point measurement and high frequency response.
Low probing forces give maximum application flexibility.
Extremely robust design will withstand moderate collisions.
Low cost of ownership with an excellent product life, exceeding 50,000 hours in operation.
Low mass, high structural stiffness and friction free viscous damping give excellent dynamic performance characteristics.
