ExactDress™ Wheel Dress Process Control Card SBS ExactDress reduces dressing time and increases wheel life for both profiled and standard grinding wheels. ExactDress uses SBS AEMS proprietary acoustic sensor technology to monitor the high frequency signals generated on the grinding machine structure during the dressing process. It compares the current AE process signal of a wheel dress to a stored Reference waveform of a known good dress to determine and report when the dressing process has been successfully completed, maximizing the efficiency of the dressing process. Monitoring the dressing cycle with ExactDress Green: Zones exceeding the Zone Minimum limit are complete. Yellow: Borderline zones nearing Out of Tolerance. Gray: Learned Reference waveform shown in background. Red: Zones below the Zone Minimum limit are incomplete or defective. Blue: Indicates zones which are below the Ignore Level. Benefits ■ Cut cycle time and increase productivity ■ Eliminate excess dressing ■ Automate dressing in-feed to prevent crashes and damage Setup couldn’t be easier. Simply dress a wheel to teach the system the AE Reference waveform of a successful dressing process. The system maps the entire duration of the process and breaks it into time slices or “zones,” indicated by a bar graph on screen. During operation, the system displays which (if any) of the zones in the dressing process are not complete, and informs the CNC control when the entire dress process has completed successfully. ExactDress also includes gap and crash control. Initial contact between the wheel and the dressing tool can be detected so the machine control can stop wheel in-feed without operator intervention, reducing cycle time. It can also detect and report an abnormal contact within milliseconds, allowing the in-feed to be stopped, avoiding a crash, damage or injury. ■ Improve wheel surface quality with precise monitoring ■ Extend life of dressers and spindle bearings Features ■ Enhances features of the AEMS ■ Easy to set up and operate ■ Backed by world-class, worldwide SBS customer service ExactDress monitoring permits the operator or CNC control to (1) determine if the wheel is being dressed fully across its width, (2) control the aggressiveness of the process, and (3) maintain the quality of the dressed wheel while conserving process tim
