The GEMDS is a DIN rail-mounted module for real-time monitoring of spindle elongation due to temperature changes, using one eddy current sensor and three PT100 temperature sensors. It features 10 digital inputs and 4 digital outputs, with a 10/100 MBit Ethernet port for communication and integration into machine controls. The module operates from +5 °C to +55 °C, is constructed of Polyamide PA 6.6, and meets UL94 VO and CE/UKCA conformity standards. It supports eddy current sensors CS5IS and CS6IS, with a measuring range up to 550 µm and precision down to ±0.2 µm, and records alarms in a black box function. Visualization is provided via GEM DS VISU software on Windows devices.
DESCRIPTION
GEMDS is an intelligent stand-alone module for reliably detecting spindle growth/displacement.
The system consist of an eddy-current sensor, an amplifier and the monitoring module GEMDS. It is able to detect in real-time critical variations (elongation, growth, displacement). Additionally, up to 3 temperature sensors can be connected and monitored by dedicated limits. This directly avoids unnecessary subsequent machining.
GEMDS monitors 4 different sensor signals, one for displacement and 3 for temperature. It can be managed by using 8 different operating scenarios and 5 different static alarms for each scenario (2 for displacement and 3 for the temperature signals).
GEMDS can be operated as a stand-alone solution. The display and control software runs on Windows (Win 7/10) based machine control panels or on Siemens Linux based systems (TCU).
The software can also be installed on 7"/10" industrial PCs from Marposs as well as on any Windows PC (Win 7/10).
As a part of the GENIOR MODULAR product family, GEMDS can be integrated into GENIOR MODULAR monitoring systems for process monitoring purposes. Then, the displacement and temperature signals are usable within the automatic monitoring strategies.
Thus, Marposs offers an extremely flexible solution, which can be adapted to changing needs by adding any GENIOR modules (Operation with GENIOR MODULAR: Interface CAN bus).
