    Hi, we use a Renishaw probe on a vertical machining center. The probe is used as part of a second operation, to establish concentricity with a bore machined on a lathe operation.

    Our CMM also uses a Renishaw probe.

    Good quality and repeatability.

    I also use renishaw probe on a Hass vmc, to probe in 5 axis mode, probe bores, find corners, edgs, you name it. The probing routines lay in the macros written for the control, or we use a custom probing post driven by master cam, to probe 5 axis.
