WK10

For integration in machine tool with open PLC controls. Communication via PROFIBUS or PROFINET.

Characteristics:

  • sensing to tool tip
  • absolut accuracy of 0.04 mm per 100 mm needle length
  • Absolutely leak proof (IP68) for demanding environment
  • needle length up to 660 mm
  • Sensor diameter only 43mm
  • Scanning direction right or left
  • PROFIBUS- or PROFINET- Communication

Features:

  • Keep control: The measuring result is transmitted and you evaluate the result in your PLC program
  • monitoring of multiple tools with different lengths with one system
  • Absolute rotary encoder
  • Positioning, speed, and torque controlled drive offers a soft contact at the tool
  • Save time by referencing your standard tool: Based on the excellent absolute accuracy it is possible to identify a standard tool. Only the standard tool has to be taught via a specific process of the tool monitoring system. All other data is calculated in the PLC based on mechanical calibration data and transmit to the system.
