Marposs presents ML3G

ML3G is a non-contact tool measurement system designed to control any type of tool directly on machine. The main feature of a “non-contact” tool setter is that the measurement is performed by interrupting a laser beam instead of mechanical contact with a stylus. This offers several advantages:

• Measurement of small and fragile as well as coated tools without risk of damage.

• Measurement at the real cutting speeds, even thousands of RPM, eliminating errors caused by run-out or length variations possible under dynamic conditions.

• High flexibility, allowing measurement of a wide range of tools and, at the same time, the possibility to perform many types of inspections.

ML3G is mainly used to make precise tool pre-setting (measurement of tool diameter and length), with automatic writing of values into the machine variables, with a consequent reduction of the risk of manual errors.

Additionally, the system is also usable for tool breakage detection, integrity verification, and cutting edge profiles scanning. All this translates into reduced scrap and increased production.

Innovations Introduced by ML3G

The new ML3G introduces a series of innovations that significantly enhance its performance compared to previous models. At the heart of the upgrade is a more powerful processor, enabling faster measurement speeds and supporting advanced controls, such as monitoring tool vibration amplitude and frequency—particularly valuable in Ultrasonic Machining applications. The system also features newly designed shutters that provide perfect sealing and a new fixing system that simplifies maintenance. An integrated air blower ensures efficient tool cleaning, while the reinforced mechanical structure guarantees stable alignment between emitter and receiver, even in the most demanding operating conditions.

Why Choose ML3G

ML3G is designed to meet the most stringent requirements in tool setting. It delivers fast and accurate measurements that help maximize productivity, even during dynamic inspections with the tool rotating at real cutting speeds. Built to withstand harsh environments, the system ensures maximum protection against coolant and chips. Its versatility is another strong point, with multiple configurations available: four lengths and three mounting options to suit a wide range of machine setups.
