Function, Maintenance & Adjustment of the Drill Breakage Control
• Course Duration:
1 Days
• Max.
6 Participants
• Languages:
Deutsch, Englisch, Türkisch, Französisch
In this practice-oriented training course, participants acquire in-depth knowledge of the function, troubleshooting, adjustment, and commissioning of the Drill Breakage Control (BRK) system on SW machining centers.
The focus is on hands-on work directly on the training machine, including mechanical alignment, sensor replacement, referencing, and control-side parameter adjustments.
The objective is to enable participants to independently restore full functionality after defects or component replacement, ensuring reliable BRK operation in production – resulting in increased machine availability and reduced downtime.
Upon successful completion of this training, participants will be able to
Understand the structure and functional principles of the BRK system,
Identify and diagnose faults and malfunctioning BRK behavior,
Replace mechanical and electrical components professionally,
Perform sensor adjustment and BRK learning procedures,
Carry out full commissioning steps using defined test routines, thereby significantly increasing machine availability and operational reliability.
Maintenance technicians, service personnel, and setup operators with experi-ence on SW machines.
Completed technical training as an industrial mechanic (with electrical qualifica-tion), industrial electrician, mechatronics technician, or comparable professional experience.
Basic knowledge of CNC machine tools and machine operation is beneficial.
