Auxillary Equipment TRIZ Cases

Internalizing the tripper pin assembly within the headstock eliminates external pinch points and reduces adjustment time for varying pipe sizes.

A rotating barrel device positions a distance measuring probe to detect tool centering deviations with sub-millimeter precision.

Dynamic holder positioning tracks unpredictable swarf paths, preventing entanglement during continuous machining.

Alternating strong and weak magnets prevent long chips from remaining stationary by disrupting balanced adsorption forces.

A turning device determines expected error values from measured axis deviations to correct workpiece coordinates.

A pedestal-mounted processing machine positions a rotating cutting tool to restore eroded valve attachment surfaces.

Segmented guards resolve safety-access trade-offs by dynamically deactivating primary locks when a secondary hood covers rotating parts.

Independent holders align cutting tools in tool cases, preventing rotation during locking.

Segmented arms and spherical contact points enable precise inner and outer diameter centering for small work pieces.

A lathe tool-holder blocking device uses a truncated-cone anchoring pawl to secure motorized or non-motorized holders on CNC lathes.

An internal groove replaces external grips to prevent shaving entanglement, allowing automated mounting without interference with nearby tooling pockets.

A pivotable chuck guard features transparent windows to allow unobstructed visibility of the workpiece during machining operations.

A laser line generator tool projects reference lines onto pipe surfaces to align cutting tools with pre-marked cut locations.

Internal coolant passages and lock pin orifices direct fluid directly to the cutting zone, eliminating air mixing and extending insert life.

A centering device uses independent support elements for precise workpiece positioning.
