Abstract: A balance and runout amount adjustment system for a rotary tool includes a rotary tool constituted of a tool holder mounted on a spindle, a balance determining device configured to obtain outer circumference position data of the rotary tool and to determine a mass balance of the rotary tool based on the outer circumference position data obtained, in the course of rotation of the rotary tool and a runout determining device configured to obtain shape data of the rotary tool and to determine a runout amount of the rotary tool based on the shape data obtained, in the course of rotation of the rotary tool. The rotary tool is configured to be capable of adjustment of the mass balance based on the result of the determination made by the balance determining device and capable also of adjustment of the runout amount based on the result of the determination made by the runout determining device.

Abstract: There is provided a tool shape measuring apparatus that allows detection of shape abnormality in a tool having a plurality of cutting edges with a simple configuration. A light receiving section 6 includes a light receiving face 9 perpendicular to an optical axis 6b of a light receiving lens 6a. In the light receiving face 9, there are disposed a plurality of line sensors 8 arranged in different directions from each other, each line sensor having a plurality of sensor elements arranged in one direction. The line sensor 8 is disposed across a first area not reached by the irradiation light L as being completely blocked by the tool 4, a second area disposed adjacent the first area and reached by the irradiation light L with a portion thereof being blocked, and a third area disposed adjacent the second area and reached by the irradiation light L not blocked at all.
