MACHINE TOOL INTEGRATION

BUYING A MACHINE TOOL IS MUCH LIKE BUYING A CAR. YOU CAN HAVE THE ONE IN STOCK, AS IS, OR YOU CAN ORDER ONE FROM THE FACTORY AND WAIT. EVEN IF YOU ARE WILLING TO WAIT (AND PAY MORE) YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO GET THE OPTIONS YOU WANT. TYPICALLY, MACHINE TOOLS IN STOCK DO NOT HAVE THE FOLLOWING:

  1. Connection For Hydraulic and Pneumatic Work Holding

  2. High Pressure Power Supplies For Hydraulic Clamping Fixtures

  3. Expanded I/O For Clamping/Robot Integration

  4. Robot PMC Interface and Connection Modules

  5. Safety Control Wiring For Auto Work Holding Systems

ADDITIONALLY, OPTIONS LIKE PROBES, HIGH PRESSURE COOLANT SYSTEMS, AND BROKEN TOOL DETECTORS ARE FIELD INSTALLED.

MACRO CAN BRING ALL THE COMPONENTS TOGETHER AND PROVIDE A COMPLETE WORKING SYSTEM. WE HAVE CAPABILITY IN THE FOLLOWING:

  1. Fanuc PMC Ladder Programming

  2. Integration of Secondary PLCs (Mitsubishi)

  3. Touch Panel Operation Stations (Panasonic)

  4. Spindle Touch Probe Installation

  5. Safety Circuit Design and Installation

  6. Design, Build, and Interface Hydraulic and Pneumatic Systems for Work Holding Fixtures
