BLADE DEVIATION MONITORING SYSTEM (K10)
General description of the blade deviation monitoring system.
This system monitors lateral blade deviation during cutting. If blade deflection increases beyond
the pre-set warning limit, then the monitoring device sends a warning signal by means of
flashing beacon mounted on the top of machine head. If no steps are taken to correct this
condition, the machine will continue to cut until the pre-set shut-down limit is reached. At this
point the machine will behave in one of two ways, selectable by parameter setting:
1. Stop cutting, raise the head and shut down
or
2. Finish the cut with present degree of deviation and then shut down.
Operation of the system
The proximity transducers are enclosed in a housing mounted on the idler and drive side guide
arms. The sensors convert the blade lateral deflection to an analog signal, which is sent to the
PLC and after a series of calculations is displayed on the operator interface in a form of bar
graphs. One bar graph for the transducer mounted on the idler guide arm and the second bar
graph for the transducer mounted on the drive side guide arm.
The bar graphs appears in both Manual Mode and Automatic Mode Screens. It is only active
when the blade is running and head is descending. The length of the bar graph is proportional to
the blade deflection. The bar graphs extend from the screen centre towards the right if blade is
deviating toward the front of the saw (cutting into the part), and extends from the screen centre
towards the left if blade is deviating toward the rear of the saw (cutting into the stock).
If a warning limit is reached and maintained longer than the preset response time, then the
beacon light mounted on the top of the head will start flashing.
If a shutdown limit is reached and maintained longer than the preset response time, then the
machine will behave in one of two ways: stop cutting, raise the head and shut down or finish the
cut with present degree of deviation and then shut down.
