  Digitizing: Reproduce existing parts with your milling machine.
Reproduce parts that would be impossible any other way.
Digitizer copies any shape automatically.  Any rigid material can be digitized.

CENTROID's Digitizing will automatically copy any 2D or 3D contour and will automatically create the G code program to machine the reproduction. Great for reproducing machinery Cams, Molds, Plugs, Cylinder head combustion chambers, EDM electrodes, and any free form shape.

(Here you see a hand shaped combustion chamber being copied so that the machine can then reproduce the exact same chamber shape on the rest of the head. This particular head shown is being repaired. Exploded pistons have caused damage to several of the other combustion chambers. The original "good" combustion shape is digitized then damaged ones are machined back to original condition after they have been welded up.)

DP-4 Touch probe is made in USA with patented technology
DP-4 Digitizing touch probe.  Accurate and reliable touch probe for CNC Digitizing and  Probing.

CENTROID manufactures its own touch probe which is more accurate and more reliable that other competing probes on the market. Designed specifically for Digitizing with a milling machine, this probe is so accurate the only limitation is the resolution of the milling machine. Manufactured of stainless steel the DP-4's mechanism requires only a feathers touch to trigger. Unlike other probes, the DP-4's low trigger force allows the use of small styli for maximum detail. The stylus is interchangeable and large selection of different sizes and types of styli are available. The size of styli depends on the size and shape of the object you are copying.

CENTROID Digitizing package for M39 or M400 $4450

DP-4 probe alone $1450
(the DP-4 is included with Digitizing package)

Fully integrated into the CNC control, our Digitizing works!

CENTROID's Digitizing is seamless with the control the software and is totally integrated into the CNC operating system making CENTROID's CNC digitizing the most user friendly available! With other control systems you'll have to buy software from one company, the probe from yet another company and then an extra PC to connect to the control to run it all. This is an expensive, troublesome way to get the job done. With a CENTROID, we have eliminated all the hassles and difficulties of digitizing with a CNC machine! The CENTROID automatically creates the G-codes as it digitizes. See graphics of the part immediately. No data manipulation is necessary to start cutting, and you can export the digitized part to a CAD/CAM system for further modification if necessary.
Powerful features combined with simple operation.

To digitize a shape, you need only to describe the approximate length, width, height, and the resolution that you would like to record at, and press start button. CENTROID's digitizing is completely automatic, no operator attendance is required while digitizing.

Mirror, Scale, Reversal, Automatic Rough and Finish pass generation, High speed processing, and Unlimited file size are all included, no extra software to purchase.
