Innovations in Machine Tool Automation Technology



Under the theme "Digitalization in Machine Tool Manufacturing," Siemens presented its entire portfolio of CNC hardware and software for the machine tool builder and the machine user.

Siemens recently presented its Sinumerik CNC hardware and software solutions, offering dual tracks for the machine tool builder and end-users from job shops and production departments of all types. Advancements in machine tool automation are offered for various CNC machines - from basic milling and turning applications to multi-axis machining centers and the fully automated, flexible work cells used throughout the manufacturing industry. In addition, Siemens offers its new Mindsphere "software as a service" concept, which enables machine tool users to gather, prioritize and access data in real-time, using edge technology.

Siemens offers the machine tool builder an entire portfolio of CNCs, plus the integration of robotic machining and solutions for additive, in tandem with the advanced automation scenarios of today's manufacturing environment.

"Likewise, Siemens has taken a major step on the road to digitalization with Mindsphere, which offers machine tool builders and end-users alike a variety of customizable software and application options for the control and maintenance of their operations," said a company spokesperson.

Mindsphere is a "software as a service" concept in which Siemens offers a wide range of services for manufacturing companies on the path to Industry 4.0. Mindsphere is an open IIoT operating system, allowing a customized platform for recording and analyzing large volumes of plant-wide production data. A customer can interact with Siemens to devise a variety of MindApps for machine tool predictive maintenance services, energy data management and even resource optimization development.

Siemens Digital Factory (DF) offers a comprehensive portfolio of seamlessly integrated hardware, software and technology-based services in order to support manufacturing companies worldwide in enhancing the flexibility and efficiency of their manufacturing processes and reducing the time to market of their products.
