General purpose monitoring module

Placed in the electrical cabinet, GEMGP is a highly effective stand-alone module for different monitoring tasks. Up to two sensors are connectable and they measure the force and strain values absorbed from the spindle during the machining process.

GEMGP provides 3 different monitoring strategies and it can handle up to 127 different cutting cycles with different types of limits (e.g. tool breakage/missing, overload, tool wear and fluid flow) for each cycle. All events exceed pre-fixed limits are recorded in a log-file.

The compact GEMGP module is designed for easy installation and operation and can easily be installed in cabinets and housings of machines, robots or other devices. All necessary functions and interfaces are integrated in the module.

Thanks to its digital I/O interface, GEMGP is independent of the NC type (no fieldbus requested) and can be triggered by any PLC, allowing a discrete connection to the module connections.

GEMGP can be used in stand-alone mode with operating software running in Windows (Win 7/10) based machine controls resp. on Siemens Linux systems (TCU). The operating software can be installed on 7”/10” industrial PCs from Marposs or on any Windows PC (Win 7/10).

As a part of the GENIOR MODULAR product family, GEMGP can be built up to or integrated into the GENIOR MODULAR monitoring systems for process monitoring purposes, delivering the strain, force and (e.g.) flow data to the processing unit for further evaluation.

Thus, Marposs offers an extremely flexible solution, which can be adapted to changing needs by adding any GENIOR modules (Operation with GENIOR MODULAR: Interface CAN bus).
