SMART SOLUTIONS FOR SEAMLESS SPINDLE OPERATION: THE CONTRINEX ADVANTAGE

Contrinex's suite of solutions—Inductive Miniature Sensors, Travel Sensors, and Smart Sensors—addresses the intricate needs of compact machine-tool spindles.

SMART SOLUTIONS FOR SEAMLESS SPINDLE OPERATION: THE CONTRINEX ADVANTAGE

In the fast-paced world of CNC machining, safe tool changes are paramount for optimizing throughput and ensuring the longevity of your equipment. One critical aspect often overlooked is the complete engagement of tools during automatic changes, a potential pitfall that can lead to significant damage. Contrinex, a pioneer in industrial sensor technology, presents a comprehensive suite of solutions for compact machine-tool spindles, focusing on three key offerings: Inductive Miniature Sensors, Travel Sensors, and the game-changing Smart Sensors.

Inductive Miniature Sensors: The Power of Precision
Contrinex's Inductive Miniature Sensors are engineered for seamless integration into the limited space of modern machine-tool spindles. These robust, metal-cased sensors provide a reliable, fit-and-forget solution, ensuring the safe detection of the spindle position (tools are engaged with precision). With a versatile -25°C to +70°C operating range, these sensors offer a cost-effective approach to safeguarding your spindle operations.

Travel Sensors: Navigating Complexity with Simplicity
Simplicity meets efficiency with Contrinex's Travel Sensors. The single-sensor positional-control system is non-complex, highly affordable, and tailor-made for monitoring drawbar positions during tool changes. Their compact M12 sensor snugly fits into the restricted spaces of your machinery, providing a streamlined solution without compromising performance.

Smart Sensors: Intelligent Protection for Your Spindle
At the forefront of Contrinex's spindle solutions are the Smart Sensors, strategically embedded in the spindle's body to monitor tool engagement dynamically. This high-precision, inductive sensor detects incomplete tool engagement and halts operations before any damage occurs. The sensors boast industry-standard IO-Link connectivity, enabling seamless integration with your machine control system.

Why Contrinex Smart Sensors?
  • Unmatched Precision: Embeddable inductive Smart Sensor monitors continuously drawbar position, detecting incomplete tool engagement and inhibiting further motion before damage occurs.
  • Compact Design: The embeddable M12 sensor fits snugly into limited spaces, offering a non-intrusive solution for your spindle needs.
  • Predictive Maintenance: Cumulative operating data, including temperature and operating-cycle count, is recorded for proactive maintenance planning.
  • Plug-and-Play Replacement: Local storage of sensor configurations allows for easy, plug-and-play replacements when needed.
  • Reliability Redefined: Proven technology guarantees fit-and-forget operation, eliminating the need for manual intervention.
Customer Application: Elevating CNC Machining Efficiency
Modern machine-tool spindles equipped with automatic tool-changing capabilities provide unparalleled flexibility in handling diverse materials, workpieces, and cutting speeds. Contrinex's Smart Sensors find their application in the critical task of detecting incomplete tool engagement during the tool change process, preventing costly damage to tools, workpieces, and spindles.
