Nanotech 250UPL Additional Accessories

Optical Tool Setting System

This system allows for on screen viewing of the diamond cutting edge and aids the operator in placing the tool on center of the work spindle axis. Includes kinematic mounting mechanism and Windows based tool setting software for automatic measurement of tool radius during calculation of tool centerline position. The LED lighting array is used to enhance tool inspection and on-screen viewing which is especially useful when using negative rake tooling.

3D Touch Probe

This accessory item allows for on-machine mechanical measurement of diameters and center thicknesses via a ruby tipped probe with a resolution of +/- 0.25μm. Actual measurements can be tied directly to production part programs for automatic adjustment to diameters and center thicknesses prior to removing the finished part from the spindle.

Coolant Shroud

This coolant shroud mounts directly to the spindle housing and saves operator cleanup time by containing slurry and chips throughout the machining process. Ideal for IR optic applications, the shroud has a removable top half for easy access to the workpiece.

Electronic Gage Head with Magnetic Stand

The electronic gage head is used to indicate parts or precision fixtures concentric to the spindle axis of rotation. The gage head is compatible with Nanotech’s digital on screen amplifier software — NanoMETER.

Hand Held Operator Pendant

This hand held controller provides the operator with the flexibility of having a portable remote pendant. Its long cord provides ample freedom to allow adjusting axes positions while being close to the workpiece. Includes docking station for storage when not in use.

Micro Height Adjust Tool Holder

Our unique high stiffness tool holder with parallel reed design for mounting single point diamond cutting tools on the Z-axis carriage. This advanced flexure design maintains both tool rake angle and X position during height adjustments. Includes both coarse and ultra-fine vertical adjustment mechanisms along with a tooling subplate for positioning the tool holder on Z-axis.

Multi-Tool Micro Height Adjust Holders

Maximize your Z-table real estate with one of our multiple tool holders. Available in 2 or 3 tool configurations, each diamond is rigidly held with independent course and fine height adjustment. These tool holders facilitate high production setups, maximizing life of the finish tool and machine throughout.

Optical Observation Package

Allows safe detailed visual observations of machining via live video from outside the enclosure. Comes with everything you need, including LCD Monitor, Camera, Lens kit, Magnetic Stand, cables and remote control zoom / focus adjustment.

Self Leveling System

This system provides self maintenance of the machine’s air isolation system to ensure both proper float and table levelness as weight is added or removed from the either the Z-axis slide or main work spindle.

NanoMETER
Software Accessory

Nanotech’s On Screen Digital Gage Amplifier for use with LVDT probes and the electronic gage head. NanoMETER is included as part of our WECS accessory or can be purchased separately to operate on any previous Nanotech controller. The software replaces older analog ‘boxes’ with a more flexible and responsive digital equivalent.

NanoBalance™ Work Spindle Trim Balancer
Software Accessory

NanoBalance is an available software option integrated into the machine controller for assisting the user in dynamic balancing of the work spindle. It offers a flexible user interface that supports the most common balancing methods including single weight, text mass and balance screws. (brochure available)
