TLM: the new TDM levelling module

Often, some pieces may have two or more oblique locating surfaces to each other.

Therefore, by fixing one of the surfaces parallel to the machine table through a locking device, the same surfaces which are not parallel to it are oblique. In these cases, a leveling device must be incorporated between the piece and the machine tool to compensate for the angular misalignment. A normal leveling device compensates for this misalignment by utilizing a spherical coupling. However, unlike the TLM, these leveling devices can have limited stability, are subject to play, and require frequent maintenance. Therefore, the main function of TLM is to be a leveling device for clamping a piece having at least two mutually oblique fixing surfaces in a stable and safe way.

TLM is fully adjustable in height +/- 5mm and can achieve full compensation from 0 degrees up to 20 degrees..
