NEW! Cuts & Marks Roof Truss Components From 11″ to 20′ Long
The new Servo-Omni is a dramatically enhanced version of its predecessor, Auto-Omni. It retains all of the robotic, machine-tool design mechanisms of Auto-Omni, but is now servo-controlled. The following description highlights the enhanced features and abilities of Servo-Omni as compared to Auto-Omni.
Set-up time is approximately 2 1/2 times faster than Auto-Omni - typically, 6 to 10 seconds per set-up average which translates to about 1 1/2 to 2 hours more cutting production per shift
Transport speed (adjusts for component length) is 162% faster
18 servo control system - rapid, simultaneous movement of Transport (back & forth) and cutting heads (telescoping, elevating, and angle rotation)
Transport and cutting head movements are smooth, deliberate and extremely fast – speed is ramped up at the start, then ramped down as the called-for position is approached stopping "spot on" without position hunting
Set-up times are not affected when resistance (friction drag) changes – that is, as the system wears over time or if mechanisms are allowed to collect dust and debris
All new electronics using Koskovich-designed & proven electronic technology – extremely reliable, solid-state circuit cards plug in & out
Encoders, which provide cutting head and Transport position information to the servo systems, are now ultra-high resolution –– capable of registering 8000 measurement points within each revolution of a drive mechanism
Reference to earth for determining precise cutting head angles is now provided by sealed Absolute-Angle Inclinometers
New Windows XP Professional® operating software and Windows®-based operator interface (now in English and Spanish)
New high-speed communications bus (PC to saw)
Less susceptible to outside voltage and electronic "noise"
Calibration is still rarely required and now much easier to accomplish
Real time production reporting –– available at the operator computer console and/or remotely via computer network
Descriptive diagnostic messages instead of look-up codes
Software & firmware upgrades available via Internet from computer console – can also email-communicate with The Koskovich Company directly from saw
Same footprint and electrical supply requirements as Auto-Omni
Upgradeable: New Servo-Omni is designed such that all options can be field installed and, also, with the intent that all future enhancements can be field installed.
