Heidenhain’s ND 5023 digital readout (DRO) is for use with manually operated machine tools. The digital readout comes equipped with a TFT color display that improves the readability of the information displayed over older models, plus features other design changes and enhanced functions.
To make installing the readout easier for users or an inexperienced machinist, an installation guide has been implemented to assist in performing the basic configuration. When switching on the unit for the first time, the user can select this support feature and will then be guided through the required settings step-by-step.
A straightforward user management has also been introduced in order to make it easier for multiple users to operate the product. Up to nine operators can save their personal settings with a user number and call them again.
