1Pcs New Renishaw OMI‑2 Optical Probe Receiver
Product Overview
The brand‑new original Renishaw OMI‑2 is an integrated infrared receiver and CNC machine‑interface unit, specially built for single‑probe measuring systems of CNC machining centres, tapping machines and turn‑mill lathes. It receives modulated infrared trigger signals from Renishaw spindle‑mount touch‑trigger probes directly, converts optical measuring signals into electrical control outputs, and sends data to the CNC controller without an extra intermediate MI12 module. It is a core matching component for automated workpiece positioning, offset setting, on‑site dimensional inspection and tool‑setting tasks in precision‑machining workshops.
This brand‑new unit is fully factory‑sealed, with complete original accessories, untouched internal circuits and optical sensors, complying with official Renishaw factory specifications.
Main Features
1. Modulated infrared anti‑interference receiving technology
OMI‑2 only works under modulated‑infrared communication mode, which can filter out interference signals from workshop fluorescent lamps, natural sunlight and workshop‑lamp glares efficiently to prevent false‑trigger errors. The maximum stable receiving distance reaches up to 6 m, fully covering the working stroke of most standard‑size machine‑tools. It is only compatible with probes that run on modulated‑signal mode.
2. Built‑in LED diagnostic indicators
Multicolored LED lights clearly display system status including start‑signal feedback, probe low‑battery warning, real‑time signal reception and system fault alerts. Operators can rapidly locate wiring‑faults, communication failures and power‑supply‑problems without extra testing instruments, greatly simplifying daily maintenance.
3. Customizable input‑output terminals for broad compatibility
Solid‑state‑relay outputs can be configured as normally‑open or normally‑closed modes freely. The M‑code input supports pulsed‑level and steady‑level control signals, seamlessly adapting to mainstream CNC systems such as Fanuc, Siemens, Mitsubishi and Haas, requiring minimal modification to machine‑control logic.
4. Rugged industrial‑grade construction
It has an IPX8 dust‑proof and waterproof rating and IK03 impact‑resistance rating, capable of resisting coolant splashes, oil mist and metal‑chip contamination inside machine‑tool cabins. Two standard shielded‑polyurethane cable options are available: 8 m and 15 m, supporting flush‑mounting or bracket‑mounting for flexible installation layouts inside control cabinets.
5. Low‑power‑consumption design
It accepts 12 V‑30 V DC power supplied directly from the machine‑tool control cabinet. The typical receiving‑mode current is merely 40 mA, with a peak transmitting‑current of 200 mA, bringing little load to the machine‑tool power‑supply circuit.
