One body + four force modules
CF20 Series
Modular Five-Way Touch-Trigger Probe System
CF20 is a modular touch-trigger probing system designed for CMM inspection. The CF20-S body accepts four interchangeable five-way modules—LF, MF, SF and EF—so the measuring force can be matched to delicate components, routine inspection or heavier stylus configurations without changing the complete probe. Designed as a direct replacement for the Renishaw TP20 probe body, CF20-S integrates with the TP20 system and supports Renishaw PH10 and PH20 series probe heads.
Change pre-qualified stylus modules without requalification
Excellent repeatability and stability
Supports automatic and manual CMMs
Match the module to the contact task
Start with the probe body, compare measuring forces and stylus limits, then review the head and changing arrangement.
Body Module
CF20-S Body Module
CF20-S can replace the Renishaw TP20 probe body. It integrates with Renishaw PH10 and PH20 series probe heads while retaining manual or automatic module exchange without requalification. Pair it with the LF, MF, SF or EF module to match the measuring force to each inspection.
