innovative technology combined with easy usability – this is where we set standards. Every day in our department we work to guarantee you simple and intuitive user interfaces, even for highly complex challenges, to let you operate economically and with μ-precise results.

With the current version 1.11 of our »pilot 3.0« software we have extended our worldwide unrivalled system of software modules including image processing technologies by such functions as the »cris« 3D measuring method, store location query and the generation of drawings from article characteristics. Make the most of these new opportunities!

New: »cris« 3D measuring method
The »cris« (circular-response-image-sampling) 3D measuring method enables fast, easy and precise measuring of spiral tools such as
gear and threading tools taking lead angles into account.
The axial movement of the cutting geometry during rotation of the tool
is compensated by constant balancing of the camera.
In addition, swiveling of the optic carrier allows recording the true effective contours for the first time. This method allows generating a distortion-free image of spiral cutting edges. Here, the effective contours of the cutting edge can also be defined at the circumference by several staggered partial cutting edges.
Distortion of length measurement due to blurred run-outs is avoided.

New: automatic generation of the envelope contours from article characteristics
Due to the article characteristic structure based entirely on DIN 4000, 2-D drawings and 3-D contours can be generated automatically from the article characteristics entered or imported into the ZOLLER tool management.

This saves the drawing of tools and guarantees process-safe assembly. Changes to your tools (i.e. extension lengths) are automatically implemented in the drawings.
  
 
New: extension of store location query
In addition to the existing option of querying store locations via machine controls, it is now also possible to use this query function with external tool management systems, for example TDM or Coscom. To date this was only possible with ZOLLER tool management.

After successfully loading the tool list from the external system, »pilot 3.0« simply starts a store location query and generates a tool exchange list.

Thus only those tools are measured on the setting sheet which are not yet on the machine. This results in fast and targeted measuring of the available tools.


 
  
 
Visionary in 2007 - and still unrivalled today: the ZOLLER »elephant«
See for yourself how fully automated measuring of standard tools works at the push of a button!

The »elephant« technology enables even unskilled personnel to measure standard tools fully automated at the push of a button. The tool is placed in the ZOLLER presetting and measuring machine, the type of tool is selected from the software, and the rest is handled by the »elephant«!
