SPC Innovations’ Detector ETC System is designed for real-time, in-machine part inspection and broken tool detection. The system is built on the proven effectiveness of the existing Detector line of gages, while adding electronic broken tool monitoring capabilities in one simple display, the company says.
The modular design enables gages and probes to be added or moved from machine to machine with minimal additional setup cost. The ETC System features real-time, in-machine inspection and corrective action. It has a single, intuitive industrial grade display and is compatible with all Detector gage probes and electronic broken tool detectors. The system also features bidirectional, multi-tool presence/absence sensing and is expandable to eight probes per display.
