NUM has developed a new communications interface option for its CNC systems that complies with the open MTConnect interoperability standard. Known as NUMConnect, the interface can be fitted to new or existing systems and simplifies the integration of CNC machine tools with third-party manufacturing management software. It enables users to implement real-time data collection and retrieval facilities for production monitoring and analysis purposes.
The communications interface can read anything that can be displayed on the CNC system’s HMI, regardless of whether it is in analog or digital format. Even detailed, low-level machine data, such as motor, drive, and encoder error messages, can be retrieved and used for monitoring machine performance, preventive maintenance, and diagnostics.
