Broken tool detection system TRS2

laser

A system for non-contact broken tool detection of solid-centred cutting tools, the TRS2 can be used on a variety of machine tools. The unique ToolWise tool-recognition electronics determine whether a tool is present by analysing the reflective light pattern from the rotating tool. Random light patterns created by coolant and swarf are ignored, eliminating the chance of failing to detect a broken tool due to coolant obscuring the beam. The single unit can be mounted outside the working environment, saving valuable space on the table. Features and benefits: Cost-effective, fast and reliable. The latest ToolWise tool-recognition technology. Ultra-quick detection: typically the tool spends approximately one second in the laser beam. Simple installation and set-up.
