User-friendliness and sensitivity of our tool monitoring system

User-friendliness

  • Self-explanatory pulldown menus

  • Operator and task-related switching off (hiding) of unneeded menus

  • Easy analysis of the process just by looking at the measurement graphic

  • Graphically adjustment of the limits by using a touchpen

  • Automatic limit value correction with acknowledgement of repeated false alarms

Sensitivity

  • Sensors for monitoring the smallest tools (to Ø 0.05mm)

  • Envelope limits with or without automatic adjustment for dynamic changing measurement values

  • Evaluation of static and dynamic signal sections each with its own measurement curve

  • Wear detection using the averaged measurement values over several workpieces
