The Maier tools process monitoring systems controls the liftetime of the cutting tools. It can also control several chapeters in a cnc program. This system increases the safety operation in case of high tool wear , especially at unmanned shift. Every imaginable CNC-Function (turning, milling, drilling, rigid-tapping,etc.) of all channels. This will be checked in real-time, independent of the other channels.
The System can monitore the power of the main spindle. In addition, the sub spindle, the driven tools and the axle weight of the single channels can be monitored. It’s also possible to monitore the spindle power and axle weight simultanelously. In case of tool failure the restistence falls to zero and the machine stops automatically. In order to consider differences in the raw material, the limits of tolerances can be remitted, while the process takes place. The investment costs for this option is inexpensive considering the potential damage that could take place if there is tool failure. This option is highly recommended to all our customers.
