Description Presetter machine E46BA
The tool pre-registration, measurement and inspection machine is an indispensable and necessary tool for any type of workshop and for any type of application, from automotive to aerospace, oil & gas, etc.
In an industry where automation becomes a constant request a presetter with that provided an autofocus capability becomes a necessity.
The AUTOFOCUS function allows tools to be measured automatically, without the operator intervening manually. This mode is recommended for those who need to carry out measurements on multi-edged tools which would be very long if carried out manually and, above all, which reduces the risk of human error to a minimum.
Once the tool has been clamped, the operator will simply have to choose what type of measurement he wants to carry out (single cutting edge or multi-cutting edge) and what to measure (X, Z or both axes) and start the measurement cycle. Without having to enter the number of cutting edges to measure or any theoretical value, the software will automatically start the cycle and end it once the 360° rotation has been carried out.
Elbo Controlli NIKKEN has developed a system that adapts the peripheral rotation speed of the tool based on the maximum diameter to be measured: the constant peripheral speed avoids the introduction of errors, whether you are measuring a 2 mm diameter tool or a 200 mm one.
The new machine software guarantees high performance: it is the heart of innovation in our world, especially that which looks to evolution.
The evolution of our software increases the connections between operators, tools and machines in the smart factory. All this translates into a real increase in terms of quality and performance.
E46BA can be equipped with the new Automatic Tool Recognition system. For more info, click here.

Natural granite
NATURAL GRANITE AS A CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL
Granite holds a very important quality when it comes to measurement. It's a natural material with the lowest thermal expansion coefficient in the world.
Natural granite is an igneous rock generated by solidification of a magmatic mass in the Earth's mant...

Thermal expansion is a phenomenon which occurs when a body (liquid, gaseous or solid) increases in volume as a result of an increase in temperature. This increase is caused by oscillation variation of the atoms around the equilibrium point.
In case of solid body, the thermal expansion concerns leng...
