TS27R
The Renishaw TS27R is a standard, hard-wired, 3D touch-trigger tool setter designed for a wide range of machining centers. Known for its stability, reliability, resistance to interference, and cost-effectiveness, it is the go-to choice for measuring tool length and radius and detecting tool breakage on the shop floor.
Core Features and Design
Compatible Equipment: Vertical/horizontal machining centers, gantry machining centers, multi-tasking machines (Renishaw)
Signal Transmission: Wired connection (4-core shielded cable); no signal interference, no transmission distance limitations
Structure: Proven kinematic trigger mechanism; non-rotating design; rugged and durable
Protection: IPX8-rated sealing; resistant to high-pressure coolant, oil, and dust
Power Supply: Powered via MI8-4/HSI/HSI-C interface; no battery required
Installation: Table-mounted; secured with M12 T-bolts; optional Spirol cylindrical pins ensure repeatable positioning accuracy

Core Features and Applications
Tool Measurement
Automatically measures tool length and the diameter of rotating tools, and automatically updates machine tool offsets
Replaces manual tool setting, eliminates human error, and significantly reduces tool change time
Damage Detection
Detects tool breakage and chipping before and after machining to prevent scrap and machine damage
Supports automatic detection during machining cycles, with immediate machine shutdown and alarm in case of anomalies
Process Control
Works with Renishaw tool setting software to enable automated tool management and process monitoring
Supports tool wear compensation during batch machining to maintain stable machining accuracy
Typical Applications
Machining of automotive parts, molds, general machinery, and small to medium-sized aerospace components
Machining centers requiring high signal stability and with no spatial constraints
Core Advantages
Most Stable Wired Connection: No optical obstruction, no radio interference, 100% reliable signal, suitable for harsh workshop environments
Versatile 3D Triggering: X/Y/Z three-axis detection, meeting all requirements for length, diameter, and breakage detection
Rugged and Durable: IPX8-rated with a metal construction; impact-resistant and resistant to coolant; long service life with minimal maintenance
High Compatibility: Compatible with all major CNC systems; can directly replace older tool setters
High Cost-Effectiveness: Standard accuracy meets the needs of the vast majority of machining scenarios; more economical than the high-precision TS34
