Model 5522 AEMS
Acoustic Emission Monitoring System
The SBS AE Monitoring System saves time and money.
It eliminates air grinding gap time and alerts the operator of crashconditions by using proprietary acoustic detection technology tomonitor and analyze the high frequency signals generated by thegrinding process.
The AEMS reports initial contact between the wheel and a new partto the machine control system so it can stop wheel in-feed withoutoperator intervention, which can save up to 20% of the typical cycle
time. It can also detect and report abnormal contact from an incorrectly loaded part or fixture within milliseconds, allowing the in-feed
to be stopped, avoiding a crash, damage or injury. SBS AE monitoringis a significant contributor to continuous improvement programs.
Position control, used to zero the machine before beginning a grinding or dressing cycle, is possible by detecting the edge of the wheel
touching a reference point known to the machine CNC. The CNC
thereby can determine the exact position and diameter of a changing
grinding wheel.
Monitoring for normal acoustic levels during wheel dressing permits
the operator or CNC control to (1) determine if the wheel is being
dressed fully across its width, (2) control the aggressiveness of theprocess, and (3) maintain the quality of the dressed wheel to conserve wheel material.
The AEMS works with a variety of SBS acoustic sensors, all of which areeasy to retrofit. They are highly resistant to grinding machine coolants
and grinding paste. Their reaction speeds are significantly faster thantraditional methods of spindle load or alternative monitoring devices.
