Tool ID, the first miLink application, reads tooling information from the RFID chip on the tool holder, and moves the information into the appropriate registers in the CNC control without having to modify the CNC control in any way. miLink lets you reconfigure applications in minutes to fit with the ever-changing needs of the manufacturing application.
The unit can be reconfigured to handle a different memory map for adding or deleting data stored on an RFID tag. Whether the application is simply auto loading of offsets, or complex tool management and quality control, miLink is easily configured.
