Application
SK process monitor
Cold forging/header
Monitoring forging force at each stations with individual sensors.
Machine : Multi station cold forging machine・Bolt former・Nut former・Header machine
Detect : Process error, tool breakage, feeding error, transfer error, over load
Hot forming
Monitoring forming process on multi-station machines.
Machine : Multi station hot former・nut former
Detect : Process error, tool breakage, feeding error, cut-off drop error,transfer error, overload
Thread rolling
Monitoring rolling force.
Machine : Flat die machine, rotary die machine, planetary die machine
Detect : Wrong size blanks, parts skidding, risers, roll backs
Sheet metal stamping
Monitoring stamping process for machines with total load sensor, die sensor, and angle encoder.
Machine : Punch press machine
Detect : Overload, rising slug, tool breakage
Metal cutting
Easy to install sensors are bolted on to machine parts such as longitudinal or cross slides and measure the cutting forces.
Detect : Tool breakage, crash, trend change in the force signal
MES
The latest SK process monitor can be connected to MES software SK-go! direct through Ethernet and enable MES functions.
Machines without SK monitor can be connected through SK machine terminals.
