Machine Monitoring Systems for stone working machines
The stone working machine sector, like the rest of the machine tool sector, is in continual technological evolution. The demand for large numbers of increasingly precise and repetitive parts, together with the need to save time, means that the manufacturer needs to implement machining systems capable of rendering the process as reliable as possible, even when not monitored by an operator.
Conditions:
Vibrations produced during machining can exert excessive stress on the spindle bearings and may damage or break them. In addition, the spindle may be seriously damaged as the result of accidental collisions/impacts during ordinary, daily operation.
Solution:
The Marposs MMS line offers various systems and a wide range of sensors for controlling vibration/collisions during machining. Events that generate alarms can be recorded in a black box and consulted remotely via an ethernet network connection. The accelerometers, which are available in various sizes, are easy to install on the machine.
Benefits:
- Vibration level control during machining process
- Reduced collision damage
- Maximised tool exploitation
- Improved product quality
- Reduced rejects
