Siemens' Showcases New CNC and Digitalization Solutions
Eastec 2021: Siemens claims its new CNC system is the first to master the challenges of digital transformation in the machine tool industry.
Siemens will present and demonstrate its Sinumerik family of CNCs and machine tool digitalization solutions – Sinumerik 828D, Sinumerik 840D and the new Sinumerik One, the first-ever digital-native CNC – at EASTEC 2021, booth 2012.
Sinumerik 828D is a compact CNC designed to enable machine tool manufacturers to leverage the full productivity potential of the digital factory in a mid-range control. With its panel-based design, the 828D can reportedly control up to 10 axes and spindles plus two auxiliary axes.
Sinumerik 840D sl is used in serial production, five-axis and multi-tasking machines. The drive-based 840D can control up to 31 axes and spindles, any number of PLC axes and up to 10 machining channels. Siemens claims it works equally well in a job shop, mid-sized or large production facility.
Siemens says the new Sinumerik One is the first CNC system to master the challenges of digital transformation in the machine tool industry. Real-world machining processes and machine tool behavior can now be simulated in the digital world with the digital twin.
In addition to the Sinumerik family of controls, Siemens will present its machine tool digitalization portfolio of software apps that increase the manufacturing productivity and accelerate the business of both machine tool builders and machine users. These include Manage MyMachines, Analyze MyMachine, Analyze MyPerformance, Analyze MyWorkpiece, Adaptive Control and Monitoring and more.
