The PROSET controller features a 19-inch industrial panel PC with an advanced PLC control system. Operators can store thousands of product and tool settings, allowing complete machine setups to be recalled instantly. The system automatically positions machine axes using ball screws, rotary encoders, and servo motors, ensuring exceptional accuracy and repeatability.
PROSET is particularly suitable for high-production woodworking facilities where frequent profile changes and minimal downtime are essential. It significantly reduces manual adjustments and helps maintain consistent machining quality.
1. Extremely Fast Changeovers
Stored profiles and cutter data allow operators to switch jobs within minutes.
2. Maximum Accuracy
Ball screws and rotary encoders provide highly accurate axis positioning and consistent machining results.
3. Reduced Setup Time
Automatic machine positioning eliminates many manual adjustments.
4. Improved Production Efficiency
Less downtime results in higher machine utilization and increased productivity.
5. Better Cutting Quality
Precise positioning improves dimensional accuracy and surface finish quality.
6. Large Data Storage Capacity
Thousands of product and cutter settings can be stored for future production runs.
7. Remote Diagnostics
Ethernet connectivity allows service technicians to troubleshoot and update the system remotely.
8. Reduced Operator Errors
Automated setup minimizes incorrect adjustments and improves production consistency.
- Includes PLC w/ 19″ Touch Screen on Roller equipped Control Stand
- 1,000 Profile Input & Memory (History)- See Touch Screen history below
- 10,000 Tool Memory
- Auto Setworks with AC Servo-motor-gear box coupled to position onto
- Radial Axis on near Side Head(s) & Top Head(s) – when new pattern is introduced
- Motorized Setworks optional extra on all other Axis – Radial & Axial
- Each axis is equipped with Ball Screws for positioning and Rotary Encoders for actual position control and true digital position readout
- 6 Dual Axis Electronic Digital Readouts for each Spindle with Dual Column Readouts (1 for each axis) along the front of the machine.
- Axial readouts include PV (Present Value-Desired Head Set Position);
- SV (Actual Set Value) & Head Number
- Radial readouts include PV (Present Value-Desired Head Set Position);
- SV (Actual Set Value) & Actual Head Radius
- Each Digital Readout – to .001″ or .01mm (is inch or metric – on demand)
- Quick Open-Reset Feature to Near Side Head(s) & Top Head(s) and Top Feed Beam(eg. if there is a material breakup in the machine, then the operator hits the open button, and the machine auto opens – they clear the breakup and hit the reset button and then can run immediately
- The Touch Screen has a wealth of history information, operating elements, parts lists to assist the operator, including Pattern Information, – Cutterhead Knife details – up to 10,000 patterns, Moulder Setup Details, Moulder Information, History File, Production Schedule, Essential Spares Lists, Motor HP’s; Belt info; Gearbox info & Parts info pages.
- Alarm System which monitors – motors, limit switches & head position locking
- The person responsible for moulder setup can preload the information(inch or mm) into the touch screen control re upcoming mouldings to be run before machine setup, usually during the running of other patterns to minimize downtime & maximize changeover efficiency.
- When ready to change patterns, the Setup person pulls up the new pattern, and the heads with Setworks set and the axis without Setworks has all the set size info downloaded to the Digital Readouts along the front of the machine. The axis that needs to be reset will flash with the desired position until that position is set. This all contributes to super fast head changing efficiency
- It also includes an Auto Cooling System/Heat Exchanger in the electrical panel
- to dissipate any heat buildup in the main panel & Setworks drives
- PLC Ethernet Hub, hookup to LMC-USA &/or LMC factory if required, as well as Software for Remote Troubleshooting for SmartSet Control PLC & System
Complete Industrial PC-Computer with complete software to talk to the Grinding room LMC M307 Measuring stand (offered below) all info from measuring the moulder heads will be downloaded to the PC and uploaded/preloaded to the PROSET Control System
