Clamping force verification can now be done wirelessly. This digital concept is designed to be an integral part of any system where verifying clamping force is essential.
In the Multi-Rail RM system we have stopper modules which have built-in force sensors.
The sensor is connected to the measuring unit, which sends the measuring data by radio to the display. The display units can easily be set up with the min and max forces to trigger an alarm.
The European 868 MHz radio-technology that we use is long range technology, thus enabling transmission distances of up to 50 meters. This guarantees error-free transmission even in most harsh machining environments.
Basic components of the system are:
- A stopper module with DIGIFORCE sensor option
- Wireless DIGIFORCE measuring unit
- Wireless DIGIFORCE display
- SCADA System ( optional, to collect history data )
