Michael Monsch has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10042347
    Abstract: A standby control for a machine tool. The standby control is operable for regulating the energy consumption of one or more energy-consuming components of the machine tool during nonoperation of the machine tool. The standby control includes a controller operable to individually activate or deactivate energy-consuming components according to a predeterminable input value in order that a temperature of at least one of the individual components or a temperature of the machine tool is influenced during nonoperation of the machine tool.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 3, 2015
    Date of Patent: August 7, 2018
    Assignee: MIKRON AGIE CHARMILLES SA

  • Patent number: 10030960
    Abstract: The invention relates to a calibration device (1) and to a coordinate measuring system for measuring the signal-inducing sensing deflection ITr of tactile measuring probes (2). A reference surface (8) of the reference element (7) is arranged with respect to the field of view (9) of the detector (5) in such a way that, in the event of signal-inducing contact of the sensing surface (4) of the sensing element (3) with the reference surface (8), the sensing surface (4) or parts of the sensing surface (4) lies or lie in the field of view (9) of the detector (5), the detector (5) and the calculation unit (6) being able to calculate the precise position of the sensing element (3) from the detected part of the sensing surface (4).
