BK MIKRO 4: Control System for Tool, Object and Free Space Monitoring

BK MIKRO 4 offers two different operating modes including all functions for production step monitoring, e.g. for tool breakage control or ejection and feed control in tool changes.

Broken tool detection BK MIKRO 4

Features:

  • Monitoring of a scanning position whose precise location has been previously entered by "Teach-in".
  • Monitoring a scanning range freely selectable via two adjusting switches.
  • Air barrier adapter as option to use the tool monitoring system system in surroundings with aggressive coolants
