DESCRIPTION
Visual Tool Setter is a system which allows to realize complex measurement applications regarding:
Tool shape and size detection
Tool breakage detection
Tool presetting for unknown tools
Length, diameter and also more other measurements like TIR, Cutter Radius, and tool center coordinates with rotating tool
Tool wear compensation and integrity check of single cutter profile and surface
Machine axes thermal drift compensation
Check of micro-tools with small diameters and different shapes that are involved in micro precision part processing and mold production
Fast measure can be get especially with static tools like turning, or in case of multi-cutter tool with indexed positions
One of the main features of Visual Tool Setter is its protection system, which allows excellent measurement performances even in presence of coolant or dust. When checks are not being performed, pneumatic shutters cover and protect the optical lenses, keeping them mechanically separated from harsh machine environment; during the measurement cycle on the contrary, a patented solution does come out an air flow from the optical window rejects chips and coolant drops. Such double protection (pneumatic and mechanical) guarantees to users the excellence of measurement results.
Thanks to the flexibility of the interface, Visual Tool Setter can be programmed to be adapted to the machine type and to the implemented measurement cycle, performing the checks in real machining conditions.
