ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL—A new, fully-illustrated four page catalog showcasing the versatility of the Speroni STP 34 presetter is now available from BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling Inc.

The catalog presents detailed information on the STP 34's axis movement, measuring range, sensor technology and axis resolution. It also features technical characteristics for precision and axis repeatability, spindle run-out, and Speroni’s multi-origin digital readout serial interface that stores up to 99 zero points and geometrical functions for radii and angle calculations.

The STP 34 represents the ideal solution for today’s tool measurement and presetting requirements, providing state-of-the-art technology in a compact, vertical format. Its versatility makes it particularly suited for machining centers, transfer lines and CNC-controlled lathes.

A vast range of available spindles and adaptors, such as ISO, HSK, VDI and CAPTO tapers, allows the system to easily measure any tool in any tool-holder.

It is equipped with micron precise Heidenhein glass scales mounted directly on the machine’s structure. This guarantees high precision and repeatability along the entire measuring range. Built-in optical vision systems enhance the STP 34's metrological characteristics, reducing the possibility of manual measurement and presetting inaccuracies.

The optional EzVision field upgrade offers an economical, fully-digital vision system that is easy to use and virtually eliminates the risk of operator error inherent in manual measurement systems. EzVision assures reproducibility of precision settings, no matter which operator uses the instrument.
