- Title
Tool probe for measuring dimensional wear and X-coordinate of turning edge.

- Abstract
This paper presents an original method of direct measurement of turning tool wear at the tip of the cutting edge, made automatically on an NC lathe by a probe, which also allows for determining the X-coordinate of the cutting edge. In the initial solution, this measurement, patented by one of the authors, was carried out using a special probe with two-touch trigger sensors or a one-touch trigger sensor and a displacement sensor. The improved probe has only one displacement sensor. Not only does the new solution simplify the probe, but it also makes tool wear measurement more accurate.
