DTect-IT CNC Sensor Monitoring System

Caron Engineering's DTect-IT was first introduced in 2016 as a product primarily used for detecting vibration levels and irregularities anywhere on a CNC machine tool or fixture; with featured applications of bearing analysis and bar feeder vibration detection (and correction). DTect-IT has become even more versatile since its inception, now capable of communicating with multiple sensors, including vibration, strain (to measure force), high precision power, and analog, which allows connecting any sensor with a 0 to ±10 VDC analog signal, and 4 to 20 mA current signals.
