More about Automatic Control by the System
Written by Josh on October 20, 2008 – 4:36 am -Apart from the above mentioned control situation, the system can also sense when exactly the real tool load reaches the highest allowable level and immediately responds with an excess condition information. Under the too much load condition, the system can robotically decrease the supply rate, and in the process, reduces tool wear in many applications and thus happens to extend tool life. The system control records and displays the tool performance for each type of tools used during the cutting. The record includes cutting time for both with and without the system, the least supply rate override that was calculated by it during cutting operations and tool wear.
It depends on the operators whether they want the system to carry out full optimization that is real time supply adjustment or just monitoring that is to just provide protection or only incident taking down for later study on a PC. The tool and work piece materials are chosen from the system’s records and the cutting parameters are entered for each cutting function. For all milling and drilling applications OMAT Adaptive Controllers are designed to carry out automatic supply rate on nearly all work piece materials.
Particularly, the system is also appropriate for irregular and semi-finishing geometries involving continuously varying material exclusion rates such as 3-D surface milling, slot, slope and curve milling. It is also appropriate for milling and drilling jobs with changeable material hardness and for milling jobs with changeable work piece surfaces. The system is also used for iron castings, milling and drilling of forgings, titanium, steel and stainless steel jobs and machining large billets of titanium, aluminum or other materials with many pockets and substantial material exclusion from solids rather than production or casting. Milling and drilling jobs, in which the raw material changes from job to job, die, mould and tool making and also drilling are the other applications of the system.
