About Benderlink for Chiyoda and Keins
TRANSLATION TO/FROM MEASURING CENTERS
Benderlink is designed to make corrections-loops between measuring centers and KEINS or CHIYODA benders a snap. Take your part-shape bender setup from hours down to minutes with the Benderlink system attached to a tube measuring center. (Note: We've documented actual cases that prove our claim.)
Supported Measuring Centers:
- Supravision based Measuring Centers (like Romer, Aicon, Romer France, Addison, Axila, Multi Systems)
- Eaton Leonard Robolix Vector based Measuring Centers (like Laservision)
STANDARD TCP/IP NETWORK
Because of the network capability of Benderlink, all connections use standard Ethernet cables. This means that your bender can be placed wherever Ethernet cables are run. In most modern plants, Ethernet connections can be easily extended everywhere.
WIRELESS CONNECTION
Customers can also choose to purchase an additional wireless Benderlink Modules that communicate through a standard WiFi Network
PC-BASED STORAGE
The software allows for the storage of bender data on the Benderlink hard drive. Data can be both RECALLED and SENT. Benderlink also allows for all 20 channels to stored as one "Block"
CORRECTIONS LOOP The software also supports full corrections loops between the measuring center and each bender.
COMMUNICATION WITH CONTROLS
Benderlink for Chiyoda and Keins communicates with all types of controls
- Chiyoda MQ41 Controls
- Chiyoda MQ85 Controls
- Keins Touch-Screen Controls (Identical to Chiyoda MQ85 Controls)
TRANSLATION LOGIC
Sophisticated translation logic allows MQ41 operators to insert extra rows of avoidance moves in the FPB data without confusing measuring centers in corrections-loops. Data is correctly re-translated when sent to the bender so that the special avoidance moves are not disturbed.
180 Degree Bends
Benderlink is the only bender to measuring center system that automatically handles the 180 degree bend problem when communicating with measuring centers. (Measuring centers cannot handle bends that approach 180 degrees.)
Carriage Position
Benderlink automatically positions the carriage when adjustments are made by the measuring center to the tube lengths.
Data Editing
Edit bender data and and view tube shapes at the Benderlink computer.
INCLUDED SOFTWARE
Benderlink also comes with the following software
- FIF Translator
- TubeCalc
- Bender to XYZ Calculator
The communications with tube measuring centers is automatic. The only intervention required by the user in Benderlink is to select the Chiyoda or KEINS channel with which the tube measuring center is to communicate. (Chiyoda and KEINS benders have 20 channels in memory - each of which can hold a single part.)
Another important function of Benderlink is that it is designed to make huge part storage of bender data very simple.
