EverTrackTM
Additional precision grating on the RBS and RBM linear encoders ensure
permanent position tracking. The position will never be lost due to
power interruptions.
|
 |
 |
 |
Radius/Diameter Mode
The console can display the position either as a radius or diameter, an
invaluable feature for lathes.
|
|
|
|
Machine Error Compensation
Machine mechanics are never exact. A correction factor can be set for
each axis independently. Just move the axis a known distance, input what
it should have been and the wizard will automatically make the necessary
correction. Correction is linear in Wizard 211 and can vary over four
segments in other models.
|
|
|
|
Absolute/Incremental Mode
This feature allows positioning using either an absolute datum or the
last position as reference for subsequent moves. Selectable with a
single key stroke.
|
|
|
|
Interactive Message Display
The Wizard will calculate actual feed-rate and display here, or the job
clock can be read. Also in this display, the Wizard will prompt for data
input, making the most demanding operations easy to set up. With the
built in help utility, the Wizard will tell the operator what the proper
F-codes are.
|
|
|
|
Bolthole Patterns
Bolthole patterns are often symmetric. The Wizard 450 will automatically
calculate all the positions for circular, linear, array or frame
patterns, from a minimum of data entry. Only the centerpoint, diameter
and number of holes are required for a full circular hole pattern with
up to 360 holes.
|
|
|
|
Tool Length Offsets
The Wizard 450L will keep track of tool lengths offsets, so there is no
need to redatum tools.
|
|
|
|
Axis Coupling
When there are two slides on the same axis, the Wizard will couple the
two positions together. The operator can use the slides independently
and the Wizard will automatically calculate the true tool position.
|
|
|
|
Programmability
The Wizard 900 and Wizard 900E store programs like in an electronic
notepad. There's up to 500 locations available. The memory can keep many
programs in store, independently labeled.
|
|
|
|
Skew Compensation
Instead of wasting productive time for setting up jobs, use skew
compensation and the Wizard will automatically make the necessary
corrections to part misalignment.
|
|
|
|
Mirroring
Reduce tool changes and key strikes by using the mirror image feature.
When a job needs repeating mirrored, the Wizard will automatically
generate the mirrored locations for a stored program.
|
|
|
|
Three Z-Axis Mode
At the position of the first spark, Wizard 900E can be switched from the
normal x, y, z display to show the only values of interest during the
cycle, i.e. distance to go to target depth, the target depth and the
actual position of the tool. This mode can be automatically triggered if
a first spark detector is connected.
|
|
|
|
Spark Out
The Wizard will dwell at the target depth enough to create the quality
finish desired.
|
|
|
|
SparkArrest™
Wizard 900E provides a unique safety feature, SparkArrest™.
This feature will block sparks if the electrode exceeds a certain
distance from the workpiece, eliminating the risk of sparking if the
electrode moves out of the electrolyte. |
