SINUMERIK ONE

In case of an accidental collision, e.g. between a tool and the workpiece, the feed axes are decelerated with the maximum available drive power. This helps to prevent damage to the machine from collisions.

Characteristics

  • Braking of the feed axes with maximum available drive power in case of collision
  • Interruption of the current machining operation
  • Rapid collision detection before further damage is caused by force transmission of the drive, no additional sensor required

Benefits

  • Damage limitation in case of collision: less consequential damage, lower repair costs
  • More availability: extended life expectancy of the machine
  • More safety: recognition by property insurers as a preventative measure
