Extensions for probing tools

If probing tools are used, as in flush trimming or when using a tool unit with a scraper, it must be ensured that the probing heads will always rest properly on the workpiece surface. This is often somewhat difficult, especially during Lead-In and Lead-Out, since, e.g., the edge of the adjacent contour may still be protruding from the immediately preceding machining operation. In such cases, the tool unit has to be swiveled forward to avoid a collision with the probing head. This evasive movement is also supported by PASCAM Bea in a simple and safe way, while users retain full control of the process.
