Process Monitoring and Prevention of Tool Breakage from Improper Parameter
KOMET®Tool scope
Monitoring, analyzing, and recording system for cutting force.
There are supporting applications and one of app. it can detect collision.
Modular cutting force monitoring system
It is attached to communication sysytem at machine and keep monitoring cutting force.
The difference from the measurement system by measuring the cutting force of X, Y, Z axis.
Collect, store, record the data in real time regardless of the size and shape of the jig / work.
Tool scope applications
-
TS-PM app
Adjust maximum and minimum torque by tool and machining monitoring.
-
TS-WEAR app
Optimize tool life by monitoring torque changes.
-
TS-AFC app
Variation of feed override in dependence of torque load at the spindle.
-
TS-Cloud app
All data is automatically stored and enable to check.
-
CD-xDim app
Monitoring a collision to prevent a collision occurs.
-
TS-TCLog app
Automatically logging tool change
-
TS-CM app
Always monitoring machining condition.
-
Application functions
-
TS-PM app
Self-learning process monitoring with statistical-based tolerance limits. (patented 6-Sigma method)
In case of abnormal status such as machining load is too high or too low, processing will be stopped. -
TS-WEAR app
Monitoring of torque changing to judge optimal tool life. Optimize tool change timing by the data.
-
TS-AFC app
Automatically adjust feed to make cutting force uniformize by self-learning.
It is effective for interrupted machining of rough cutting since feed is optimized by each cutting force. Recommended for improving machining efficiency and extending tool life. -
CD-xDim app
Detecting collision 150 times faster compared to conventional system.
Minimize spindle damege by sending stop signal from tool scope.
