Renishaw TRS2 systems were installed at Munjal Castings. The TRS2 is a non-contact broken tool detection system for machining centres. It determines whether a tool is present by analysing reflective light patterns and ignores any that are created by coolant and swarf, thereby eliminating false indications of a broken tool.
