New for Renishaw's ML10 laser measurement system, is a novel optical alignment tool for fast and easy set-up.

The LS350, laser steering optic, allows the laser beam to be accurately aligned parallel to the axis of movement, using simple lever movements to adjust horizontal and vertical beam direction.

Adjustment is smooth, precise and intuitive, with the majority of set-ups requiring just one pass of the machine's axes.

The steerer adjusts the laser beam in both planes by up to +/- 35 mm per metre of beam path (+/- 2 degrees), allowing use on axes up to 5metres in length.

It can be used in combination with the standard linear, angular and straightness measurement optics, and is also compatible with the swivel mirror and fixed turning mirror accessories.

Available only from Renishaw, the LS350 can be purchased with new systems and as an upgrade to all existing ML10 systems in the field.

It can also be used with an adaptor to fit most Hewlett Packard laser measurement systems.

Renishaw's ML10 laser measurement system is a world leading laser based diagnostic system for machine tools, CMMs and other precision positioning systems.

Compatible with leading international standards, it provides the capability for straightness, linear, angular, squareness and parallelism measurements, along with vibration analysis (FFT or modal analysis), drive control velocity functions and automatic scale or lead screw compensation.

The ML10 system also offers the unique RX10 rotary axis calibrator, and the capture, storage and presentation of data from instruments supplied by other manufacturers, such as digital indicators and the Federal 832 amplifier.
