CNC Tool Data Management & RFID (TDM)
TDM is our most comprehensive Tool Data Management System designed to protect your CNC
Machine Tools from costly crashes caused by operator entry errors. RFID
code tags (option) are installed on each tool holder which contains information on the
tool (T#, geometry, life, etc.). The system connects directly to your Presetters
collecting and storing Tool Offsets during presetting. TDM also
integrates directly to your CNC equipment, automatically registering offset
information as tools are loaded into the Tool Changer. These features greatly
reduce setup times and ensuring data integrity.
NC Programs call Tools using an 8-digit Tool #, which is assigned during
presetting. This gives the operator the flexability of loading Tools into
any Tool Changer Pot location. No more crashes due to Tools being loaded into the wrong
Pot location.
Tool offset editing can be locked out on the CNC
Control, forcing all edits to
occur on the TDM system. Here the system will validate the
changed offsets fall within max/min specifications eliminating scrap parts
caused by data entry errors. All offset changes are logged, providing a
detailed audit trail.
Tool Life Management is supported, allowing the system to monitor a tool’s
cutting time, and automatically replace an expired tool with a fresh backup
without interrupting the NC Program.
LCC offsers a wide range of RFID options, so give us a call to see which best
fits your needs.
Works on all FANUC i-Series Controls!
