Title:
The Cutting Edge of Connectivity: How Sensorized Tooling is Driving Manufacturing into the Future
Description:
The manufacturing industry is undergoing a digital transformation, with more factories connecting industrial equipment like machine tools to collect data and gain insights. One area where this connectivity is making an impact is in cutting tools and tool holders equipped with sensors. In this presentation, a technical expert from Sandvik Coromant will discuss the capabilities of sensorized tooling, including measuring temperature, vibration, strain, and other metrics in real-time during machining operations. Attendees will learn how sensor data can be used to optimize machining parameters, predict tool wear and failures, and ultimately improve productivity. The presenter will outline the technical considerations in developing sensorized tooling to withstand harsh machining environments. There will also be an overview of data connectivity options and how tool data can integrate with wider factory systems. While sensorized tooling requires upfront investment, the speaker will make the case for how the data and insights it provides can drive significant long-term cost savings and efficiency gains across manufacturing processes. The presentation will equip the audience with an understanding of this important emerging technology poised to help advance manufacturing into a more connected, intelligent future.
