Features
CONNECTS TO MEASURING CENTERS |
Connects directly to measuring centers using the Supravision Network protocol. |
ENABLES MEASURING CENTER CORRECTIONS LOOP |
Translates corrections data between tube measuring centers and the MiiC bender. This feature allows the measuring center to make direct corrections to the MiiC bender data to adjust the machine automatically. |
PROVIDES CLEAR COMMUNICATION STATUS FEEDBACK |
The Benderlink user-interface displays the status of communications. The program provides feedback for the type of measuring center being used, the status of communications, and translation status. |
EDIT BENDER DATA |
Enter and modify XYZ data, convert to PRB (bender) data, modify PRB data. MiiC parameter data and production data variables can also be edited. |
SAVE/LOAD MIIC DATA FILES |
MiiC data can be saved and recalled from your hard drive, backed up to CD-ROM, network, or anywhere. |
SAVE/LOAD SUPRAVISION FILE DATA FOR CONVERSION TO MIIC |
Supravision files can be imported and converted to MiiC format. MiiC data can also be exported to Supravision files. |
MiiC bender data storage - using Benderlink for MiiC to Replace Aging Tape Drives
MiiC tape and floppy drives, like all electromechanical devices, tend to wear out over time. Customers say that they are not easily replaced with the new tape drives as the tape drives are becoming more difficult to find. The MiiC benders are outlasting the MiiC tape drives.
Customers are using our Benderlink for MiiC software to solve the problem of the aging tape drives. Benderlink for Miic is excellent for data storage. The data that is transferred from the MiiC is stored on the computer hard drive.
In one application we installed, there are four MiiC benders connected through wireless connection to a central Benderlink computer. The customer sends Supravision files created by Tubecad to a central location on the network. The MiiC operators then import the Supravision data into Benderlink for MiiC, then send the new data out to one of the four MiiC benders.
After the program is completely setup (with wedges and options), the operator then uses Benderlink for MiiC to transfer the final setup to the disk of the Benderlink computer.
Long Distance communication
For cable distances greater than 50 feet, we recommend that you use our Benderlink Ethernet Module technology.
