Brankamp CMS Collision Monitoring System

April 07, 2016

Marposs Corp.’s Brankamp CMS system for collision monitoring is designed to reduce or even eliminate machine collisions that generally lead to high repair costs and long downtimes. The Brankamp CMS system detects dynamically increasing forces with damage potential within milliseconds and sends a stop signal to the machine drives.

The Brankamp CMS system employs sensitive sensors that are capable of recognizing irregularities in the production process and reacting quickly. In such cases, stopping the machine at the highest possible rate helps minimize standstill and setup times, as well as time-consuming repair work. As a consequence, plant availability increases and production volume increases.

The CMS system can be optimally deployed for single or small series production scenarios. The system is easy to install and can be retrofitted to existing machines. It does not require complicated machine interfaces or special adjustment procedures. Operators of all skill levels can benefit from it immediately and without having to attend complex training courses. Information such as process overview, analysis and statistics is provided through a visualization and human interface running into the machine control or on a separate industrial PC unit using Windows or Linux operating systems.
