Okuma America introduces OSP Suite, an open-architecture CNC system that combines the company’s “Intelligent Technologies” with various software applications to improve cycle and lead times while achieving optimum machine conditions. Built on the OSP-P300 control platform, its operating interface provides customizable layouts, machine tool apps, widgets, shortcuts and touchscreen technology designed to improve shop floor productivity. Users can customize the functionality of the control by downloading apps from the Okuma App Store.
The OSP-P300 control features a durable 15" or 19" touchscreen that can be customized for three different operators with convenient one-touch access to machine tasks and suite apps. Each operator can digitally store and retrieve documentation and notes right on the control with the white board and message board widgets. Manuals, checklists, work orders and process sheets are stored on the control. A search function enables the user to find important documentation for quick reference, and to bookmark data and notes critical to keeping machines up and running. Operators can also view 3D part files.
ECO Suite uses ECO Idling Stop functionality to stop energy-wasting machine tool idling and non-essential functions. Thermo-Friendly Concept technology automatically stops the cooling unit if needed while maintaining machine accuracies. Reports track and show energy consumption and savings.
