ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a system for checking tool breakages on a machining center equipped with a numerically controlled machine tool (100) and a tool magazine (200), in which there are at least two cameras (401,402), processing and control means (600), the system thus making it possible to take photographs of tools intended to carry out the machining of a part in one or two planes, one photograph being taken prior to machining and the other afterwards, the photographs obtained then being compared in order to detect any abnormal conditions on the tools, the photographs taken by the second camera (402) being focussed on the basis of length information obtained with the photographs taken by the first camera.
