MULTI INTELLIGENCE®

What is MULTI INTELLIGENCEⓇ?“IoT Device for Cutting and Joining” that visualizes machining phenomena only skilled workers could judge

MULTI INTELLIGENCE® (hereinafter referred to as MI) is an IoT device capable of real-time monitoring of temperature, vibration, and force during machining processes such as cutting and Friction Stir Welding (hereinafter referred to as FSW).
MI has a built-in temperature sensor in the cutting tool/FSW tool, and an accelerometer and force sensor wireless transceiver inside the holder,
making it possible to wirelessly measure the temperature, vibration, and force at the tool tip/probe tip.
We support a wide range of applications such as anomaly and pre-failure detection in cutting/FSW, tool life determination, and selection of optimal machining conditions!
MI is available for purchase and rental.
We also offer contract testing services utilizing MI. Please take advantage of this.

ASM
(Cutting version)
Simultaneous Temperature and Vibration Measurement Type

This device can monitor the temperature and vibration of the tool during cutting in real time. Temperature measurement is possible even while applying coolant (inner-through possible), and vibration measurement can be done simply by gripping the tool.

i-flash Cutting Vibration Measurement Type

i-flash
(Cutting version)
Cutting Vibration Measurement Type

High-speed sampling of acceleration data enables frequency analysis. (Sampling rate 44.1kHz)
High-speed data acquisition reads the true waveform and supports the selection of optimal machining conditions.

i-stir
(FSW version)
FSW Simultaneous Temperature and Force Measurement Type

This device can monitor the temperature and force of the FSW tool in real time during Friction Stir Welding (FSW).

b-lex
(b-series)
Stationary Vibration Measurement Type

The vibration measurement function of MULTI INTELLIGENCE® has been made more compact and easier to use.
The small body, 25x25x25 [mm], detects vibration regardless of the installation location.
Since it is waterproof, it can be used in environments affected by coolant or water.

Feature01

Real-time monitoring of temperature and vibration
inside the tool during cutting

Since sensors (thermocouples, etc.) are built-in near the tip of the cutting tool/tool pin,
it is possible to measure the temperature and vibration at the tool edge/pin tip.
We support the IoT transformation of cutting/joining and the selection of optimal machining conditions.
We “intelligize” the tool itself and realize the “visualization” of machining/joining phenomena.

Feature02

Temperature and vibration data can be read and recorded
by setting up a receiver and PC

A measuring instrument and a wireless transmitter are installed inside the holder.
The measured information is transmitted wirelessly and can be checked on a PC monitor.

For example, we can meet
the following requests.Request Order

【Cutting version】

I want to “visualize” the phenomena during machining.
I want to measure the temperature of the tool tip while applying coolant.
I want to find machining conditions that can suppress chatter.
I want to find the cause of machining failure.
I want to detect internal material defects and prevent machining problems.

【FSW version】

It’s difficult to start testing FSW (Friction Stir Welding) because there are no internal adoption records or precedents.
I don’t know the appropriate tool, joining conditions, etc., for new materials or new shapes.
I can’t assemble an efficient testing plan because the joining mechanism has not been elucidated.
