发明名称 Identifying Components in a Material Processing System
摘要 An automated material processing system is provided for processing a workpiece using a processing table. The system includes a replaceable component comprising at least one cutting head consumable, one or more radio frequency identification (RFID) signal devices disposed in or on the replaceable component, and at least one reader communicatively connected to the one or more signal devices. The one or more signal devices are encoded with information about the replaceable component and the reader is configured to sense the information encoded on the one or more signal devices. In addition, the system includes a computing device communicatively connected to the reader for (i) processing the information transmitted by the reader and (ii) configuring a set of operating parameters of the material processing system based on the sensed information.

主权项 1. An automated material processing system for processing a workpiece using a processing table, the system comprising: a replaceable component comprising at least one cutting head consumable, the replaceable component configured for mounting on the processing table; one or more radio frequency identification (RFID) signal devices disposed in or on the replaceable component, wherein the one or more signal devices are encoded with information about the replaceable component that identifies two or more of a name, trademark, manufacturer, serial number, usage history, operating parameter, or type associated with the replaceable component; at least one reader communicatively connected to the one or more signal devices, the at least one reader configured to sense the information encoded on the one or more signal devices; and a computing device communicatively connected to the at least one reader for (i) processing the information transmitted by the reader and (ii) configuring a set of operating parameters of the material processing system based on the sensed information to operate the material processing system in a manner suitable for the replaceable component.
