Non-Contact Laser systems for rapid, accurate, tool setting and tool breakage detection have brought about a significant improvement in production quality and productivity.
Downtimes are greatly reduced compared to manual tool pre-setting. Inspection between consecutive machining operations is possible, ensuring a reduced scrap rate and allowing unmanned operation.
On-machine laser tool setting automatically updates the tooltable, avoiding any manual data insertion error.
Marposs Mida Laser System Non-Contact Tool Setting System for CNC Machine Tools
The Marposs’ Mida Laser system permit to achieve a constant manufacturing quality as well as minimized down-times. Its protection device, based on ATE technology (air-tunnel effect based tecnology), has the best signal-noise ratio obtained through the best reduction of noise coming from chips, coolant and air. The rugged mechanical structure, the professional optical laser system and the intelligent electronics guarantee the best reliability and precision in tool pre-setting and verification.
Laser control under coolant
Tool verification and tool breakage detection cycles can be reliably performed, even under a shower of coolant due to the active drip rejection filter and the air tunnel effect. The flexibility of the programmable, microprocessor based interface, has allowed the laser system to be adapted to the harshest of machine environments.
