Enhanced Remote Pressure Monitoring
September 1, 2024
Hyson, a business of Barnes Group Inc. and provider of nitrogen gas systems for metalforming operations, has announced the expansion of its Toolmind Secure Remote Monitoring System Product Line to enhance stamping operation control and efficiency.
"Our zero-scrap policy ensures that every production cycle count, and Toolmind plays a crucial role in achieving this goal," said a company spokesperson.
Product benefits and features include:
- Real-time control: Toolmind provides real-time data and alarms, allowing for proactive decision-making
- Efficiency: Minimizes downtime and scrap by identifying issues quickly
- Scalability: From small to large operations, Toolmind grows with customers' production needs
- Integration: The Base Station integrates with PLCs, providing a built-in shut-down operation if process limits are exceeded.
The Toolmind Remote Monitoring System now includes a base station, handheld reader and sensor, with the addition of two new sensors and a range extender (Toolmind Repeater).
The Base Station is the heart of the system. It allows users to remotely monitor many tools, each equipped with 12 sensors. With real-time data outputs and alarms, the station provides a centralized hub for efficient monitoring-reducing investment costs by consolidating monitoring capabilities into a single base.
The Toolmind Handheld Reader is designed for convenience and safety. This reader provides real-time data, without the need to break into the pressure zone. Users can monitor pressure and temperature in the palm of their hand.
Toolmind expanded sensor options now includes:
- Sensor 1: The original sensor for general use, it communicates data every 20 seconds
- Sensor 2: A sensor communicating every 40 seconds to extend sensor life while maintaining critical monitoring
- Sensor 3: A new sensor that communicates every 0.5 seconds, which is suitable for tool try-out and development applications.
The new Toolmind Repeater (Range Extender) amplifies the signal between sensors and the Base Station, extending the effective range of Toolmind. Now, customers can monitor tools across larger areas without compromising data accuracy.
