CNC IT-Integration Software for Machine Tools to Include New Applications



Siemens has added new applications to its "Sinumerik Integrate for production" software suite for networking machine tools with production-level IT systems.

Siemens has added new applications to its "Sinumerik Integrate for production" software suite for networking machine tools with production-level IT systems. "The new release now includes Manage MyMaintenance (MMM), an effective maintenance-tasks management system, and Access MyData (AMD), a set of open interfaces that now allows direct access to machine and process data," said a company spokesperson.

Access MyData offers an interface to access machine and process data of machine tools controlled by the Sinumerik 840D sl CNC. To allow data communication, the machine tool is directly connected to the Sinumerik Integrate server at the customer's site.

AMD Basic is available free of charge and enables the direct reading and writing of NC and PLC data from the Integrate application server. Purchasing extensions to AMD Basic allows machine tool data to be processed and NC part programs transferred via a file transfer interface.

"Manage MyMaintenance enables small and medium-sized companies to enter the world of maintenance management without any additional investment," said the spokesperson. "MMM automatically instructs the user as soon as a new maintenance date is scheduled for a machine. The time and tasks to be performed are presented in a clearly laid-out list."

Self-explanatory color coding indicates which measure is overdue and which has not yet reached its deadline. A number of maintenance tasks can be defined and intervals specified. "The software is easily installed via the Sinumerik Operate graphical user interface without any programming effort," said the spokesperson.
