Applications

We offer specially tailored sensors and monitoring solutions for metal cutting machines such as automatic lathes, drills or thread tapping machines.

Easy-to-install sensors for screwing to force-absorbing machine components such as tool holders, longitudinal and cross slides or their drives measure the cutting forces respectively acoustic emission signals. Alternatively, current sensors register the power consumption of electric motors, powering the tools or the parts to be processed.

Sophisticated monitoring algorithms for tool breakage, collision as well as trending for monitoring the effects of wear comprehensively secure the process. Specific limit values for the detection of idling and caught chips ensure that the machines are not turned off without reason.
