System description
RTP20 is an indexable head that uses the CMM's motion for repeatable repositioning. It offers low‐cost ‘motorised' head functionality with an
integral TP20 touch-trigger probe.
Automated indexing of the head is realised through an innovative process which uses the motion of a CMM to achieve motorised head style
operation. This indexing process comprises of three operations:
An external locking lever on the probe head is driven against a dedicated sphere mounted to a pole located on the bed of the CMM, thus
unlocking the head
The CMM motion is then used to engage a drive-cup located in the head's A-axis swivel, with the pole-mounted sphere, enabling rotation
of the head in the A and B-axes by driving around the pole
The indexing operation is completed by again using the CMM motion to drive the locking lever against the pole-mounted sphere, thus
locking the head
The automated indexing of the RTP20 allows the integral TP20 probe to be moved to 168 repeatable positions in 15-degree increments using
both the A and B-axes, requiring a one-time only qualification for each stylus position thus ensuring fast throughput for part inspection. Using
the CMM motion to lock and orientate the head together with the MCR20 change rack, which allows repeatable interchange between qualified
probe modules, provides a fully automated system.
NOTE: The red LED on the front of the head indicates probe status, and can be controlled by either the CMM or a Renishaw probe
interface. Conventionally LED ON indicates probe seated (armed), and LED OFF indicates probe triggered.
Electrical connection is via a 5 pin DIN connector.

Installation
Mounting the shank on the probe head
NOTE: The RTP20 shanks are factory fitted and are selected by part number when ordering (see 'Parts list').
Hold the shank in the recess on the top face of the RTP20
Rotate the shank until the four screw holes are aligned
Fix the shank in place using only M3 × 5 mm screws ﴾supplied﴿
Progressively tighten with the 2.5 mm A/F hexagonal key (supplied)
Mounting the RTP20 to the CMM
The head is normally attached to the CMM quill using a shank to suit it.
For optimum shielding against EM phenomena, it is recommended that the shank is grounded to the same electrical point as the control
system.
Custom designed mountings are available, subject to approval from Renishaw's Custom Products Department. Please contact your supplier or
Renishaw for further information.
The head mounting must be rigid, as any movement during operation will introduce system measurement errors. If the head is replaced or
repositioned in the quill, all head positions in current use must be requalified before making further measurements.
NOTE: Remove plastic cap from kinematic mount prior to attaching a TP20 module. Keep in a safe place for future protection.

Operation
WARNING: Safety glasses should be worn and the CMM speed be reduced during initial operation of RTP20.
It is the machine supplier's responsibility to ensure that the user is made aware of any hazards involved in operation, including those
mentioned in Renishaw product documentation, and to ensure that adequate guards and safety interlocks are provided.
CAUTION: RTP20 is designed for automated operation under direct control of the CMM software. To avoid possible collision
during use, RTP20 must not be unlocked, re-orientated or locked by hand during normal operation.
Preparing RTP20 for use
To prepare RTP20 for use, the pivot pole must be correctly fitted to the CMM table to ensure unobstructed operation of the probe head. The
pole consists of three sections; a fixing stud, middle stem and upper pole section which has the pivot sphere at its tip. The pole sections must
be fitted using the torque tool (supplied) to ensure the pole does not become loose during operation. Various fixing studs are available for
different CMM table fixture holes, these are; M6 x 1, M8 x 1.25, M10 x 1.5, 5/16” x UNC and 3/8” x UNC.
CAUTION: RTP20 must be locked in the A, 0 and B, 0 position before initially defining the pivot pole sphere.
