New Qass Optimizer Technology Delivers Control of Consumable Tooling Costs

Qass Technologies announces the development of the QASS Optimizer which was designed to provide a solution for manufacturing facilities that have consumable tooling costs in end-mills, reamers, drills and others.

Arlington Heights, IL (PRWEB) June 22, 2009 -- Qass Technologies announces the development of the QASS Optimizer. (http://www.qasstechnologies.com/) The Optimizer was designed to provide a solution for manufacturing facilities that have consumable tooling costs in end-mills, reamers, drills, etc. By utilizing patented Acoustic (AE) technology housed in a single, user-friendly unit, the Optimizer enables users to acquire valuable data on tool usage in order to maximize performance and predictable wear.

Unlike other "metrology" instruments, QASS Optimizer is manufactured for the production floor. QASS Optimizer technology provides the following user benefits:

• Establishment of a base line for predicting tool wear for any process

• Virtual elimination of scrap and re-works because of tool damage

• Optimization of feed and speed rates to maximize all aspects in real-time production

• Measurable in-process parameters for easy, fast adjustments after the first few cuts

End-users of the QASS Optimizer will experience a drastic reduction in setup times while reducing tool wear and breakage. This enables manageable, predictable consumable tooling costs resulting in increased machine up-time and reduced maintenance.

The portable unit can be used in a multi-machine work environment and consists of simple plug & play operation, user-friendly screens and real-time monitoring that interfaces with most machine control units.
