HCU1 hand control unit
HCU1 is a portable head drive and position display unit for use with the PHC10-2 motorised head controller. This is invaluable for setting up a component, operator controlled inspection and teach-cycle programming.
It allows an operator to manually change the orientation of the head without the need for sending commands through the CMM controller.
Features include two speed action (jog and rapid move), two axis head display, transmit button for teach cycle, status and error LEDs.
PHC10-2 head controller
PHC10-2 head controller receives instructions from the CMM control. The PHC10-2 controls all head functions and reports system status to the CMM:
- Drives PH10 (PH10T, PH10M or PH10MQ) to position - sent either from the HCU1 or CMM.
- Checks and reports position
- Flags up errors, e.g. failure to reach position, obstruction before or after locking etc.
The PHC10-2 does not process any of the probe sensor signals. These are railed clean through the heads axes and controller to the probe interface.
