Thermwood High Tolerance Tool Length Sensor

Ever wondered what that optional High Tolerance Tool Length Sensor on a Thermwood CNC router does?

 

This nifty tool (spotted here on a Cabinetshop 43 512-10), can automatically measure both the length and diameter of your tools, and update the control system with the precise offset numbers.

 

No more fussing over exact placements! It automatically compensates for the new tool length/diameter, eliminating the need to precisely locate the cutter bit. It provides a highly accurate method of adjusting tool length/diameter for pocketing or profile edges.

 

Ask our CNC experts about this option to help improve your production process!

 

LSAM 5 Axis Trimming Capabilities

🔍 Did you know our cutting-edge LSAM systems can be configured with a separate 5-axis trimming head?

🚀 Like this LSAM 1020 flagship model, for example. It features a dual-gantry setup where one gantry can print while the other trims simultaneously, streamlining your workflow like never before!

 Here’s a quick rundown of our innovative models:

• 𝐋𝐒𝐀𝐌 𝟏𝟎𝟏𝟎: A closed high-wall system with doors on each end, featuring a single control with both print and trim heads on one moving gantry. Efficient and compact!
  
  
•  𝐋𝐒𝐀𝐌 𝟏𝟎𝟐𝟎/𝟏𝟎𝟒𝟎/𝟏𝟓𝟒𝟎: These models also feature a closed high-wall
  configuration with doors on each end, equipped with dual controls and dual gantries for separate print and trim operations. Perfect for maximizing productivity! 
  
  
•  𝐋𝐒𝐀𝐌 𝐌𝐓: Designed with an open configuration, it has a single fixed gantry over a moving table, integrating print and trim functions seamlessly. 
  
  
•  𝐋𝐒𝐀𝐌 𝐀𝐏 𝟓𝟓/𝟓𝟏𝟎: These systems offer an open configuration, with optional enclosures available. They focus on printing only, with a fixed gantry over a moving table, ideal for specialized tasks.  

We offer the broadest range of LFAM systems in the industry, to help you find the perfect solution for your needs and budget. But LSAM systems are more than just 3D printers - they're real production systems, capable of producing industrial fixtures, molds (including high temp), tooling, foundry patterns, prototypes and end products from a wide variety of both low and high temp materials.

𝗔 𝗳𝗲𝘄 𝗟𝗦𝗔𝗠 𝗮𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀:

• LSAM systems offer three printing orientations - HLP (Horizontal Layer Printing), VLP (Vertical Layer Printing), allowing parts to be printed that are as long as the machine table and ALP (Angle Layer Printing), the ability to print at a 45 degree angle.

• With the fastest print heads in the industry, our LSAM systems can print at speeds from up to 200lbs per hours to over 500 lbs per hour.

• Choose from Print-only or Print-and-Trim combinations with table sizes ranging from 5’x5’ to 15’x40’ and beyond.

• Save both time and money over traditional methods - case study here: https://bit.ly/3zWoWjk

 

𝗦𝗲𝗲 𝘂𝘀 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲:

We will next be printing LIVE at IMTS 2024 in Chicago, IL (booth #433103) starting on September 9th with an LSAM AP 510 - visit us to learn more about LSAM, or you can always contact us directly to arrange a personal demonstration at our corporate headquarters.

Did you know that LSAM systems can print in three orientations? Each one offers unique advantages for specific part designs, providing unmatched flexibility on the same machine. Let's dive into the benefits of each orientation:
🔹 **𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐋𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 (𝐇𝐋𝐏)**: Standard printing from the machine table for everyday needs.
🔹 **𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐋𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 (𝐕𝐋𝐏)**: Print parts as long as the machine table for larger projects.
🔹 **𝐀𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐞 𝐋𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 (𝐀𝐋𝐏)**: Print at a 45-degree angle for complex geometries and unique designs.

Our 𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐓𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞-𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐥 ensures superior print quality by:
🌟 Finishing the bead’s final shape and dimension
🌟 Actively compacting beads to remove voids
🌟 Enhancing interlayer bonding
🌟 Improving consistency in printed composite microstructures
🌟 Preventing excess material build-up on the nozzle

**𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐋𝐒𝐀𝐌?**
🌟 Market & Technology Leader in LFAM since 2016
🌟 Real Production Systems
🌟 Widest Range of System Sizes & Configurations
🌟 Perfect for creating industrial fixtures, high-temp molds, tooling, foundry patterns, prototypes, and end products with diverse materials
