Eliminate Blind Spots: Kowa’s Rotary Wiper
Rotary wiper - the ideal vision system for CNC monitoring and harsh environment manufacturing.
In CNC operations, clear vision is essential. The Kowa Rotary Wiper is a purpose-built, all-in-one machine vision system created to withstand the extreme conditions inside machining environments. Using a unique rotary cleaning mechanism, compact construction, and high-definition imaging, it delivers continuous, unobstructed visibility — all without pausing your production.
Built for Harsh CNC Environments
Oil spray, coolant mist, and flying metal chips make it notoriously difficult to monitor the inside of CNC machines. The Rotary Wiper is engineered for these challenges, giving operators continuous access to hard-to-see areas. This enables early detection of chip build-up, coolant issues, or other anomalies before they cause costly interruptions.
The Rotary Cleaning Advantage
At the core of this system is a spinning sapphire-glass window driven by compressed air. The glass features a durable, scratch-resistant coating that resists water, oil, and debris. Combined with air injection, it keeps the view crystal clear even during aggressive cutting operations.
