NCi-4

130 (5.12) 98 (3.86)

(Interface for NC products)

The NCi-4 interface is used with the NC1,NC3 and NC4 non-contact tool setting systems, processing their signals and converting them into a voltage-free solid state relay (SSR) output, for transmission to the CNCmachine control. The NCi-4 features a drip rejection modeallowing it to filter out random drops of coolant without triggering the system.
