Established in the 1960s, the company has grown significantly, becoming a global frontrunner in metal-forming equipment, known for its quality and innovation. The group’s unwavering commitment to excellence are clearly reflected in its three signature brands: Faccin, Roundo, and Boldrini.

By nurturing strategic collaborations, the group leverages each brand’s strengths, maximising their collective potential and resources. This vast expertise, combined with a top-notch research and development team of skilled engineers, has enabled Faccin Group to unveil three innovative products simultaneously at EuroBLECH (stand D07 in Hall 11).

These include the Faccin wireless control system, the pioneering CNC console, and the 4-roll electric-drive plate roll. These advancements not only showcase the group’s dedication to excellence but also underscore their commitment to enhancing metal-forming technology capabilities for their clients.

Wireless Control System: The Future Of Smart CNC Operations

Faccin wireless control system for free movement and maximum control

Faccin’s innovative wireless control system lets operators oversee the entire rolling process and all machine accessories. This remote device links wirelessly to the CNC console, featuring a screen that mirrors the console’s display in real-time.

Light and portable, it comes with a shoulder strap. It works as an extension of the main console, giving operators unmatched freedom of movement and manage rolling process more easily and effectively.

The ability to move freely is crucial, letting the operator stop and access the machine when needed, boosting safety. The wireless control also has four side customisable buttons, plus a big joystick to control pre-axis rotation.

Main benefits:

Makes machine start-up easier for operators
All machine commands can be managed by the wireless control system
New command to set the maximum translation and rotation speed of the rolls
Allows precise micro-positioning
Enables proportional movements, thus regulating variable speed with joysticks
Permits multiple movements contemporaneously (particularly useful when rolling complex and polycentric shapes)
Simple one-step operation, especially useful for big rolling machines
Full automation

Cutting-Edge Ergonomic Console With Advanced Siemens PGS-Absolute

Faccin ergonomic console for total automation

The latest ergonomic console, coupled with wireless control system as standard, and Siemens PGS-Absolute software, is poised to set a new standard in the metal forming sector. Carefully selected advanced features transform Faccin CNCs into the quickest, most accurate, and most powerful full CNC systems available today for rolling equipment.

The CNC console, equipped with the newly developed Siemens PGS-Absolute software, offers a range of features aimed at increasing automation, improving machining output, delivering superior finishes, and ensuring part uniformity. Its strengths include straightforward programming, fine-tuning, complex shape creation, and production management tools. It also provides complete automation capabilities, enhanced measurement and correction tools, and advanced diagnostics.

Key features:

Rotating, high-definition 19″ screen
Innovative and ergonomic design
Larger joysticks and fewer buttons for easier operation
User-friendlyinterface

Innovative Electric-Drive Rolling Technology

Faccin electric-drive 4EDL: Cost-effective, productive plate rolling

The newly engineered and precise electric-drive plate roll with linear guides, Faccin 4EDL series, blends hydraulic movement of the lower rolls with electric rotation of the top roll. This special feature makes the 4EDL the most cost-effective and productive rolling solution.

This advanced plate rolling machine ensures automation, consistency, and easy bending of thin and thin-medium plates. It boasts high-speed rolling up to 10m/min, a notable 35% drop in energy use, a big 50% cut in oil waste, and quiet operation with up to 10-15 db noise reduction.

Carefully designed and made in-house, each part has been chosen to offer top efficiency and ease of use. The new 4EDL can be fitted with tech-based accessories to boost productivity to the max.

Triboelectric Vibration Sensor For Machinery Condition Monitoring

Christellee — Thu, 24 Nov 2022 08:13:15 +0000

Wenbo Ding’s group at Tsinghua-Berkeley Shenzhen Institute, Tsinghua Shenzhen International Graduate School, have made important achievements in the research of vibration sensing.

(PRNEWSWIRE): This study developed a highly sensitive self-powered vibration sensor based on the triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG), which is successfully used to monitor the operating conditions of mechanical gear systems, reaching a recognition accuracy of 99.78 percent. The research article entitled “A Highly Sensitive Triboelectric Vibration Sensor for Machinery Condition Monitoring” was published in the journal Advanced Energy Materials.

Vibration sensors are involved extensively in a variety of applications. Especially in the era of the Internet of things, developing self-powered vibration sensors has become a very meaningful yet challenging problem.

In this paper, a highly sensitive self-powered vibration sensor based on the TENG for machinery condition monitoring is investigated. The triboelectric layers constructed by the flexible dielectric film and porous metal material effectively improve the sensitivity of the TENG sensor.

The TENG sensor can detect vibration of 1-2000 Hz, and the output signal of the TENG sensor has no distortion in waveforms even in high-temperature and high-humidity environments. Combined with machine learning algorithms, the TENG system has been successfully used to monitor the operating conditions of mechanical gear systems with high accuracy.

The results can be displayed on both the computer screen and other mobile devices in real-time. Furthermore, it can be used for vibration detection in other areas such as the air compressor, heat gun, hollow tile recognition, etc.

The detected data is further processed by an embedded system and displayed on the local screen. This work presents solid progress toward the practical applications of TENG in vibration detection and has great potential for the development of self-powered vibration sensing.
