Witis: reference software for measurement in machining

A solution particularly adapted to optimize cutting processes and to diagnose machine-tools and machining equipment:

  • Define the best cutting conditions by measuring forces or power,
  • Diagnose the vibration issues of a machining system,
  • Compare cutting-tool geometries,
  • Characterize cutter wear,
  • Evaluate the balancing of a spindle + tool-holder + cutter system,
  • Measure the temperature of a part,
  • And much more…

  • Modular and intuitive display
  • Time and spectral analysis tools
  • Comparison of measurement files
  • Automatic report generation
  • Integrated interface for controlling Kistler dynamometers
  • Interface available in French and English

Setting

  • Wide range of possible measurements
    • analog: voltage, current, vibration, impact hammer, temperature, speed (rpm), frequency (Hz)
    • digital: binary, speed, frequency
  • Automatic detection of acquisition cards (National Instrument CompactDAQ modules), easy configuration
  • Saving of configuration parameters
  • Integrated module for driving charge amplifiers for Kistler dynamometers (optional)

Playing and recording

    • derivation
    • calculation of fundamental frequency and cyclic ratios
    • FFT
  • Saving of signal processing sequences
  • Display table of values, quick export of data
  • Signal splitting
  • X-Y display (representation of one signal in relation to another, not as a function of time)
  • Measurement file comparison utility
    • Multiple selection
    • Time synchronization of signals
    • Automatic trend graphs

Exporting data

    • recall of main information
    • logo integration
    • Etc.

Kistler module (optionnal)

  • Add-on dedicated to the parameterization and control of „industrial“ charge amplifiers (Kistler type 5073A)
  • A single interface to manage everything (replaces the DynoWare software)
  • Edition of several configurations according to the measurement ranges and saving
  • Automatic reset to zero at the start of the acquisition
  • Automatic calculation of moments from X/Y positions
