Actual Customer Feedback & Testimonials on ROI and Cost Saving Due to Our PCS Broken Tool Detection Systems
“We estimated a cost of $600 per incident – a chain reaction crash due to a broken drill bit. The first day we installed the unit, it stopped the machine twice for a broken tool, thereby, paying for itself the first day.”
Machine(s): Schutte multi-spindle CNC chucker
Material: Steel
Coolant: Water Soluable
“This product has helped us reach our objective of lights out machining. No more worries about how bad the machine will be crashed in the morning. One of the best investments ever.”
Machine(s): Miyano CNC lathe
Material: 303 stainless
Coolant: Water Soluable
“We have been using your systems for several years now and now we are applying them to other machines. It was worth having them because we have been saving money on tooling.”
Machine(s): Davenport
Material: Steel
Coolant: Oil
“The PCS sensor eliminated the problems associated with gear box sensors, eliminated problems with clock-wise or counter-clock wise sensors only, providing a much wider range of degrees of travel for the sensor. Sensor problems disappeared, availability is next day and support service is outstanding.”
Machine(s): Wasino & Hydromat
Material: Brass
Coolant: Oil
“One tool break would cause a chain reaction that would cost about $700. PCS paid for itself the first time we detected our first broken tool.”
Machine(s): CNC lathe
Material: Titanium
Coolant: Water and Oil Applications
“Without the drill detector, we would break a $285 broach about once a week.”
