ABSTRACT:
A measurement probe for a machine tool has a housing incorporating a window that allows the optical transmission or receipt of signals from/to infrared transmitters or receivers. To obviate the need to mount the transmitter and receiver components on an external surface of the housing, they are surface mounted to a circuit board.
