Conventional actuating tools
MAPAL TOOLTRONIC - a fully-fledged NC solution
The Reiden RX18
A fully developed concept facilitates integration into the machine
On the control side, the machine experts directly accessed the functions of the Siemens controller. The inductive carrier could be seamlessly integrated into the mechanics thanks to the integration into the controller. Furthermore, no difficulties arose in the control cabinet thanks to the small, compact control unit. “The TOOLTRONIC unit can be automatically changed from the magazine to the HSK A100 connection of the spindle like a normal tool”, explains Andreas Mollet.
“MAPAL gave us comprehensive advice before we chose the TOOLTRONIC”, explains Daniel Lustenberger. The subsequent cooperation between those responsible at Reiden and MAPAL from the fields of construction, electrical engineering and control technology went off without a hitch. MAPAL employees supported the commissioning of the system, so this process also ran smoothly, only taking three days. In the final machining tests, the system achieved the best results. “Thanks to this additional solution, we’re able to enhance our systems’ functions for our customers without impairing their versatility in the process”, Daniel Lustenberger sums up.
