management tools cam/machines

[TECNOMODEL]

Bye to all,
in the company where I work now is born the need to make the working centers work even at night not presided over.
we are therefore beginning to think about how to set this up.
we work molds, extrusion and blowing heads as well as some pieces for automatic machines and some various mechanical details.
we have a cad/cam (cimatron) with which we design and cam for the work centers.
plus operators perform some work by planning machine edge.
Of course the biggest limit is the insufficient number of tools in the warehouse of the various machines.
My first idea is to "fix" a number of machine tools that will always have to remain equal, mounted on the same caliper and the same length.
in addition to these there will be another set of tools that will be defined in the cam and that operators will have to manage.
Therefore, in essence, if they need to disassemble one tool to mount another one they will have to do so by choosing among those of the series of tools "mobili".
in this way when we go to make the cams for the processing carried out with the fixed tools we will not have to do anything else, for the operations in which a "mobile" tool is used will be attached a document in which the type of tool is explicit, the clamp, the length and the position in stock.

how do you manage your warehouse?
ideas? suggestions?

 

[welcome to the machine]

How many cncs? all the same cone iso? and how many tools already mounted on clamps and pre-sets are you considering?

have you foreseen a safety plan for breaking tools,surheating, liquid level, compressor shutdown etc?

initially 4 machines, then should increase the number. same cone din. I thought to make about 20 fixed tools x machine and keep the other 20 (approximately) free. this x every machine.

for now we have begun to reason about the tool control, thanks for the suggestion.

 

[cimaguy]

but the "mobile" tools are in a warehouse common to all machines or every machine has a fixed warehouse and a mobile?

 

[TECNOMODEL]

every machine will have its tools.
by furniture I mean that the operator can disassemble them not only from the warehouse but also from the clamp.
for example to reuse the same clamp to mount another tool.

should not mount a tool presetting without contact on board machine so as to measure the tool just before use and verify the integrity of the same.

Was that a question?
I didn't understand what's in the tool management speech.

In my opinion, if you never want to touch the positions of the "fixed" tools you have to leave empty posts (from t10 to t15 let's pretend...) where the operator mounts the tools you say to him.you have to try to put the operators (and yourself doing the programs) in the condition of not wrong .i, in the report that I send in the workshop, I specify always be the position (t1,t2 etc.) that the milling diameter.
