About OMI-2T
The OMI-2T optical interface utilises a revised state-of-the-art modulated optical transmission method, therefore offering the highest level of resistance to light interference.
OMI-2T has been specifically designed for use in twin probing applications, therefore it communicates with both a spindle probe and an OTS table probe, or two spindle probes, and gives visual indication of the activated device.
To maximise compatibility with machine tool controllers the OMI-2T has user configurable outputs.
Compatible probes
OMI-2T can be used with any combination of the following new generation probes. Flexible twin probe system configurations, using one receiver and two probes, can provide an easily integrated solution for most on-machine inspection applications.
Component setting/inspection : New! OMP40-2, OMP60, OMP400
Tool setting/inspection : New! OTS
