  • Patent number: 10835975
    Abstract: A device for identifying a spark-erosion wire conditioned on a coil includes a radio tag, rigidly connected to the coil and accessible for reading data that it supports, identification data of the wire, supported by the radio tag, a data-reading device, associated with a wire spark-erosion machine, capable of reading the identification data supported by the radio tag of the coil, and capable of transmitting the identification data to the wire spark-erosion machine, an acquisition device for generating and recording over time as identification data, in the radio tag, historical data selected from the group that consists of historical usage data describing usage conditions of the wire supported by the coil and historical constraint data describing physical constraints to which the wire supported by the coil is subjected.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7066425
    Abstract: The invention a device with retractable anti-roll means designed in particular for a wire dispensing reel (10) having a cylindrical body (11) and end flanges (12, 13). The end flange (12) comprises a circular peripheral rolling edge (2) provided with slots (15a–15f) wherein slide elastic blades (5a–5f) the ends of which constitute retractable radial anti-roll projections (3a–3f). The elastic blades (5a–5f) are integral with a coaxially operated ring (4) whereof the rotation enables to project or retract the radial anti-roll projections (3a–3f).
