On Site Retrofits - Do It Yourself Retrofits

Using IBH's extensive CNC control know how and experience, IBH retrofits and upgrades machine tools on-site or trains you in our facilities to upgrade your machine yourself using one of our pre-engineered packages.  We retrofit milling machines, sample makers, counter cutters, wood routers, and laser machines.  You may inquire about a package for your machine by contacting us at (630) 678-1520.

New life for your old machines!
   

STAY AHEAD OF TIME

The IBH PA LW is a high end CNC control from proven technology on the latest PC-based platform.  Windows XP plus the IBH PA real time kernel build a base for a system that covers the full range from simple 2-axis machining to complex applications that include 5-axis simultaneous machining or multi-axis machines.  The PC-based architecture make this system the most powerful and most flexible CNC system on the market. 

 
     

For best performance results, we use a digital, compact, and cost effective servo drive solution that is highly dynamic, precise, and efficient.  Up to three axes are possible in one housing to save space in the control cabinet and achieve an optimal price/performance ratio.  To simplify wiring and reduce failures from wiring, only one cable is required to connect the CNC to the drive and to connect one drive to the other drive. Various configurations are available ranging from 5 to 20 amps.  Integrated in each drive is a line filter and inrush circuitry for protection, and an internal regen resistor. 

   

 
     
 

 

The servo motors are designed for the dynamic motion of machine tools and have an extremely high power density.  The motors have 3-phase, 6-pole winding and utilize Neodymium magnets (Nd-Fe-Bo).  Each standard motor has built in 2-pole resolver feedback, IP64 protection, and a plain shaft.  Options include internal holding brake, keyway, UL-version, protection class IP65/67, encoder feedback. 

 
     
 

The PAMIO modules are truly state of the art technology.  The modules communicate with the CNC via the PA-Superbus bus system.  This is a super-fast, real-time bus that communicates synchronously at max 100µs without any delay. That's 10-50 times faster than any of the standard field buses commercially available!  Bottom line is the interface to your equipment is fast and reliable.  Modules can contain 24 inputs and 16 outputs, 4-axis encoder inputs and command voltage outputs, or a combination of digital and analog inputs and outputs.  PAMIO modules can be plugged together, or connected in series via a single Superbus cable up to 35m apart.  Each module simply snaps on a standard DIN rail and is auto-configured by the CNC at power on for simple startup.   

     
     
   

When it comes to accessories, we've got you covered.  From a rugged operator's remote pendant with 100 increments/rev hand wheel, axis selection, feed override, start/stop buttons, and E-Stop, to various rack mount machine control panels and keypads, to color touch screen displays, we're sure to have the solution you need!

The IBH PA LW CNC retrofit system for ELCEDE, Lasercomb, Lasercut, Data Technology, and compatible laser systems uses advanced laser control features from a Windows XP PC-based CNC.  This completely eliminates the individual feed override switches previously needed to regulate axes in different directions.  It also eliminates the potentiometers for the laser focus height control (nozzle adjust).  Finally, it gives the added capability of setting speeds and focus heights for individual axes in all axis directions for both two point and three point, but also custom adjustable cuts.  In real-time, the CNC calculates proportionally the velocity along the path for both angle and curves.  Simultaneously the height control parameters are used to auto focus the laser along the path.
