Options & Accessories
Laser Device for Presetting, Breakage Check & Profile Measuring
The optional laser measuring system scans tool edges and automatically transfers measurement values into the tool offset memory for fast and accurate tool setup and monitoring.
Automatic Workpiece Measuring
The optional infrared measuring probe automatically measures workpieces directly within the machine spindle, allowing measuring cycles to transfer data directly into the CNC control system.
Increased Coolant Pressure with Internal Coolant Supply
An optional high-pressure coolant system with 20 bar coolant pressure provides improved cooling performance for spindle and tooling systems. Air cooling is also available as an alternative.
Software & Control
Sinumerik ONE with Operate
The Siemens Sinumerik ONE CNC system combines advanced machining performance with smart manufacturing integration, digital twin technology and highly efficient networking capabilities for modern production environments.
Integrated EMCONNECT functionality allows seamless switching between machine controls and digital production applications while displaying all relevant production data through a full-screen or sidebar interface.
The system delivers exceptional CNC performance, reduced commissioning times through virtual preparation and seamless integration into digital manufacturing workflows using integrated SIMATIC S7-1500F PLC technology.
EMCONNECT – Digital Process Assistant
EMCONNECT provides centralised access to machine data, operating modes and production systems through an intuitive 22-inch multi-touch dashboard interface designed to improve productivity, efficiency and workflow management.
The familiar CNC control environment remains unchanged while operators gain immediate access to machine status information, operating modes and production-relevant data through a touchscreen-optimised interface.
Heidenhain TNC 620
The Heidenhain TNC 620 control system features a 19-inch TFT colour display with advanced 3D graphics and conversational programming capability. The system is particularly suited for milling, high-speed cutting and advanced 5-axis machining applications on machines with up to 6 axes.
