IoT / Software

e-na is a non-contact workpiece visual inspection system that uses a camera and a laser projector.

Characteristics

• The workpiece is photographed before processing, and image analysis is performed to create 3D data.
• It can detect casting defects and installation errors.
• Because measurements are taken without contact, there is no risk of damaging the measuring instrument due to operational errors, and the work can be completed in a short amount of time.

tool management

You can pre-set tool lifespans. Tools that have reached the end of their lifespan can be easily checked at a glance from the management screen, making tool management a breeze.

• Tool life monitoring
• Replacement of spare tools when the tool reaches the end of its lifespan.
• Spare tool correction value conversion

Monitor Ace V

Enter tool data for each pot in the ATC (you can register as many tools as are stored in the ATC).
Tool information can be viewed by selecting the tool from the page containing the information you want to see.

Monitor Ace V2

Set any tool number and register data for each tool number (up to 998 entries can be registered).
Tool information can be found on each tool's page.

Operation 0 display

Clearly displays operating records, alarm logs, and other information. Visualizing machine operating status helps improve productivity.

• Operating record
• Abnormal performance
• Tool information Abnormality/Warning

Processing monitoring

If the load on the spindle or feed axis exceeds the standard value during machining, the machine can be stopped or the machine control can be activated to continue machining.

• Maximum load monitoring for each tool
• Simplified Adaptive Control
• Feed axis load monitoring
• FN Adaptive Control

*Feed axis load monitoring and FN response control are optional features for Monitor Ace V. (Standard features in Monitor Ace V2)

Automatic renewal function

If a machining monitoring error occurs and the machine stops, the system can clear the error state and automatically resume machining the next workpiece.

• Spare tool replacement
• Palette Skip

Niigata Remote Operation Monitoring System Ni.SHARE

"Niigata Remote Operation Monitoring System Ni.SHARE" is a general term for software that utilizes data via Ethernet communication. It supports the understanding of operating status and the efficiency of maintenance management, contributing to increased productivity.

Common issues

• It is difficult to grasp the operating status.
• Tool and program management is complicated.
• Unexpected shutdowns occurred due to uncertainty about maintenance schedules.
• The process of compiling utilization rates and actual results is time-consuming.
• The detection of load anomalies is delayed.

interactive digital showroom

• Check the operating status at a glance
• Centralized management of tools and programs
• Visualizing maintenance schedules enables planned maintenance.
• Automatic recording of operational data
• Detect load fluctuations and prevent problems before they occur.

Major software

"IOT Remote Monitoring Function KEEP-EYE" enables standalone devices to be IoT compatible.

"IOT Remote Monitoring Function KEEP-EYE" is monitoring and management software that enables standalone machines to be IoT-enabled. Leveraging the management know-how cultivated with FMS, it allows for centralized management of everything from understanding operating status to managing tools, programs, and maintenance information through an easy-to-use interface.

Spec.

Number of machining centers supported	20 spaces
PC for data collection and display	1 spaces
Dedicated PC for data display	Up to 5 devices can be displayed.

Machine operating status management function

The operating status of the machine is displayed on the right side using circle icons. The left side is a calendar display where you can check the deadlines for maintenance information.

Tool management function

It is possible to register tool information and write and read tool information to and from the machining center. The tool mounting and removal scheduling function allows you to create a list of interchangeable tools according to the machining schedule, enabling you to mount and remove tools according to the machining process.

As an optional feature, it is also possible to transfer tool information from the presetter to the software.

Program management function

You can create machining programs, upload them to the machining center, and download them from the machining center.

Regular maintenance function

It is possible to read and write scheduled maintenance information for machining centers, and to create maintenance items on KEEP-EYE. Once maintenance items are created, they will be displayed on the machine operation status calendar.

Operating rate management function

The machine's operating status is recorded and displayed in a bar graph.

Recording and management function for operational performance

This displays a list of operating time and cutting time from the start to the completion of the machining process.

Axial load confirmation function

The system reads tool and load information during cutting and displays it in a graph.
