in-process monitoring system SPECTRA
Montronix’s SPECTRA tool and process monitoring system is used in a wide range of metalworking applications. Various machining processes such as cutting, grinding, turning, drilling, etc. can be monitored.
By detecting and diagnosing problems that occur during machining in-process, factory troubles such as the outflow of machining defective lots and downtime are minimized.
A wide range of applications can be monitored
Application Examples
Drilling/Cutting | Turning | grinding | Conveying system |
- A wide variety of measurement parameters (vibration, power, load, torque, AE) cover the monitoring of various machining processes
- It can also be used with small diameter tools with a diameter of less than 3 mm
For detecting various process abnormalities
- Tool abnormalities – breakage, wear, poor grip, etc.
- Accidental collision with the workpiece
- Detection of microcavities and impurity structures in materials
- Quality monitoring of threading processes
For process optimization
- In-process detection of out-of-tolerance quality deviations during machining
- Processing quality can be quantified
- Based on quantified data, recipes and recipe cycles can be optimized
Also for machine protection
- Detects unforeseen collisions between the tool and the workpiece
- Detects overload during machining
- By quickly protecting equipment from collisions and overloads, it contributes to improving equipment utilization and reducing various costs related to damage to equipment and equipment parts and the occurrence of defective lots
