Lancoon Electronic Edge Center Finder with LED and Beep for Milling CNC Lathe

This is a very useful unit, but only if your workpiece is conductive like metal. Wood or plastic won't work because you won't see the light or hear the beep. Great for the appropriate use.

I was surprised how accurate it was having used a wobble stick in the past.

Bel outil que ce détecteur de bord pour fraiseuse, il est de plus très précis et prêt à fonctionner grâce aux deux piles fournis avec, le tout est rangé dans un petit coffret, très utile pour protéger cet outil de précision et donc comme tous les outils de ce type, très sensible aux chocs.

Good for figuring out exactly where the tool is. This type of edge finder doesn't spin and is purely electronic, so the contacting tool will also need to be conductive for it to work, though I don't see any reason for it not to be. The audible alarm isn't very loud, especially if you're in a noisy environment and have hearing protection on, but the LED light is bright enough. I don't see much reason maybe besides runout to get a more expensive edge finder, but this one is good enough for my purposes.

Bought this for work as a CNC machinist. Took me a few parts being wrong to realise that the smaller diameter shaft was bent by 0.3mm
