MRS MODULAR CHANGE RACK

Renishaw’s modular rack system (MRS) allows customization of probe and stylus changing racks to optimize CMM functionality.

The MRS is a modular system designed to provide a platform for Renishaw probe and stylus changing racks. It comprises a rail and two leg assemblies, and is available in three different standard rail lengths, 400 mm, 600 mm and 1000 mm (15.75 in, 23.62 in and 39.37 in) to suit a number of changer requirements.

The MRS rail can also be placed at different heights from the CMM’s bed by using multiple MRS legs to allow the required clearance for long styli and extension bars.

The standard interconnecting MRS legs supplied (4 per kit) are each 125 mm (4.92 in) long. A maximum recommended leg length of 500 mm (19.69 in) can be achieved by purchasing additional legs. These are available in either 62.5 mm or 125 mm (2.46 in or 4.92 in) lengths. The rack is mounted on the CMM bed via two MRS feet attached to the legs.
