TemperChip

Technology

TemperChip® sensor is a patented invention supported by years of professional R&D process.

Key aspects of the technology include

· Online threshold temperature measurement function

· AI features for CNC process optimization,

· Communication interface with CNC machine controllers and more.

Components inside the TemperChip temperature control include various sensors, a miniature battery, an electronic control board, a BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) communication chip and a recharge chip.

The measurement device also has the option to be calibrated according to critical temperature points (10-15% under the limits) that are expected to cause material heat damage. Calibration will be done according to the work specimen and/or workpiece material type.

When the machining process meets the threshold points as indicated, an LED light on the device warns the operator. The operator can manually stop the machine or replace a tool. In a more advanced stage of industry 4.0 methodology, the machine controller will be programed with algorithm to apply the most efficient prevention step in accordance with the scenario on hand.
