United Grinding C.O.R.E. (Customer Oriented REvolution) is a new hardware and software architecture developed by United Grinding. United Grinding says the aim of C.O.R.E. is to increase connectivity and to create the basis for the operation of modern Internet of Thing (IoT) applications. According to the group, it opens up possibilities for networking, controlling and monitoring the production process, and it is said to bring the user experience of operators into the world of the smartphone generation.
The new C.O.R.E. technology is displayed on a 24-inch full HD multi-touch display. Navigation works like on a smartphone; users can configure the interface according to their individual requirements. The C.O.R.E. panel has virtually no keys, and there is a rotary switch for feed rate override, enabling the axes to be regulated with a simple turn.
United Grinding designed the new access system to have individual user profiles automatically loaded, and it works via a personalized radio-frequency identification (RFID) chip. This is said to make it easier for users to log in and out of the machine, and also makes it significantly more secure. In addition, a roles profile is stored for each user, so users only see information relevant to them. This is meant to reduce complexity and help prevent errors.
C.O.R.E. OS, a full operating system, comes installed on a high-performance industrial PC, the C.O.R.E. IPC, which is home to all software applications. C.O.R.E. OS is also compatible with all United Grinding CNC controls.
Third-party systems can also be networked via interfaces such as Umati. United Grinding says this enables the machine to use the company’s digital solutions, including remote service to the service monitor and production monitor. Support from the United Grindings customer service team can be requested directly at the C.O.R.E. panel. The panel also features chat functionality and a camera for video calls.
