TP6 Touch Probe
About the TP6 & TP6A
The TP6 and TP6A probes have different probe mount options (M8 thread and Autojoint respectively). Both probes are kinematic touch-trigger probes and have manually adjustable trigger force for optimum probe performance with different stylus configurations.
The TP6 is 25mm in diameter and can carry long styli (M3 range), providing substantial overtravel for excellent robustness. This ideally suited to manual machines.
