Tool breakage and continuous machining are usually problems that can be solved by installing a tool breakage detection system. I will show you how to use a direct contact sensor to detect damaged drill bits, milling cutters, and other tools. What tool detection options do you have? Prevent excessive scrap parts and rework, with almost no loss of cycle time or preparation for lamp out operations. Inspect cylindrical shank cutting tools on CNC lathes, machining centers, multi spindle screw machines, and chucks, such as drills, taps, reamers, or special forming tools.
1、 Using a tool damage detection system for error prevention:
Tool damage detection
• Parts are correctly positioned
• Part clamping
• Check the position or approximate position
• Detection of hole depth or completion of operation (plunger)
2、 Type of tool breakage detection system:
Basic scanning rod - detects whether the rod has reached the end of its stroke.
Built in encoder scanning rod - can learn different tool lengths or positions.
Plunger type tool damage device - detects whether the rod has reached the end of its stroke.
3、 Precautions and detection for tool damage installation:
Basic model installed on tray:
When installed in the machining area, the spindle is programmed to the appropriate position to compensate for any tool length present in the spindle. Minimal cycle time loss.
Basic model installed in magazine:
If the tool sensor is installed in the tool magazine, it will be used in a fixed position and cannot be used for multiple tools. This is because the tool length is different and there is no axis to move the tool to the correct position.
Built-in encoder type:
It can learn over 30 different tool lengths in CNC tool libraries. This device can be installed in the tool magazine area with little or no loss of cycle time. However, each tool must be taught a location, and each tool must have a separate M code to identify different tool lengths. If installed within the working range, you should use the basic model and program the axis to the position where you want to check the tool length. Unless you use it to check the position of parts or use it for different applications.
Plunger type tool/drill bit damage device:
This is for areas where the basic model cannot be used. In addition, this can be used to detect hole depth or whether the operation is complete.
Installation and requirements:
Requires M code or driver source. The feed holding circuit is usually connected to or uses an external alarm to stop machine operation. A remote module is installed in the electrical cabinet. If the device is installed on a tray, the cable runs downwards through the cable track and may pass through the channel cover.
