New machine function improves cycle time and protects the engine
After six months of development, KraussMaffei has tested the SmartTurn optimization option not only in field tests at selected customers but also in-house on five different rotary platen and insert machines.
The new function SmartTurn from KraussMaffei not only optimizes the turning speed but above all adjusts acceleration and deceleration based on the motor's characteristic curve. This does not only improve cycle times, but also protects the engine. In general, the lighter the tool, the more interesting this feature becomes and the greater the potential it offers.
One of the first customers to successfully test the new SmartTurn function in field tests is Nifco. For the specific application, more than one second of cycle time could be saved.
