Tool-setting arm
The DMA High-Precision Tool Setting Arm Series is specifically designed for turning centers to enable fully automatic tool setting and in-process accuracy inspection, thereby improving machining efficiency and dimensional accuracy. The complete system configuration includes: the DAP5 tool setting probe, the DAD-1 driver, and the DMA tool setting arm body (which comprises a fixed base, a torque motor-driven rotating arm, and a probe mounting bracket). The use of a direct-drive torque motor enables fast and smooth automatic extension and retraction of the tool setting arm. Operations are programmed via M-codes embedded in the machining cycle, eliminating the need for manual intervention and automatically performing tool wear detection, data compensation, and breakage monitoring. The tool setting arm body features a precision mechanical structure combined with a carbon fiber arm, achieving lightweight construction while ensuring high rigidity, fast motion response, and a long service life. It operates stably and reliably in harsh cutting environments such as those with coolant and metal chips. The probe features a built-in broken-needle protection mechanism and is equipped with a dual-color LED indicator that provides real-time feedback on its operating status; a probe guard is included as standard equipment, providing full enclosure protection when not in use, which effectively extends its service life.
