Monitoring Grinding Process

Monitoring, Optimization and Process Analyse System MOPAS

The grinding of work pieces made of modern cutting materials, such as the grinding of cutting inserts, is done on fully automated grinding machines in large patch sizes. Fully automated dressing and truing units inclusive part measuring and automatic correcting of the axis positions allow for proper selection of grinding parameters a highly productive manufacturing with highest quality.

The correct choice of grinding parameters could be taken over a process of analysis with the help of MOPAS by ProGrit. By visualizing the grinding process in terms of process forces, power consumption of the spindle motor and elastic deformation or feed movements of the axes of the grinding machine the grinding process can be divided, analyzed and optimized into all its sub-processes.

Benefits by MOPAS

- Reduction of cycle times, optimization of spark out times
- Optimization of grinding wheel tool life, reduction of grinding wheel wear
- Reduction of unproductive machine times by optimizing the truing and dressing intervals
- Optimization of the grinding process forces, increasing of cutting edge quality
- Visualization of the grinding process for programming and training purposes
