The MACHINUM CNC digitalization software portfolio is designed to manage, analyze, and optimize shopfloor performance, allowing users to increase speed, agility, and endurance of their operations.
The digitalization portfolio is integrated into Siemens Xcelerator, allowing machine tool companies to better facilitate digital transformation – making it more efficient, faster, and scalable in manufacturing and design, and meet the demand for energy efficiency, sustainability, and high-quality product manufacturing. The technology isn’t limited to Sinumerik-controlled CNC machines, allowing the MACHINUM portfolio to be integrated into any existing manufacturing environment.
Launched in the U.S. at the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS), the MACHINUM portfolio consists of three pillars:
Smart Machine offers lower programming and material costs, higher quality machine uptime, and overall faster machining by using machine data for real-time, in-process quality control.
Smart Shopfloor provides customers with lower material, operational, and programming costs, along with higher utilization, through more efficient preparation and pre-production resource management.
Smart Virtual Machine offers lower programming costs, and higher quality and utilization for better machine engineering by integrating digital twin and closed-loop engineering. Companies can use digital twin to enable dependable virtual machining processes, accelerating the run-in of new parts, and reducing costly downtime.
The MACHINUM portfolio features Adaptive Control and Monitoring (ACM) allowing users to reduce their machining times up to 15% and extend the life of their cutting tools, leading to greater manufacturing productivity.
“It’s important for manufacturers to start or enhance their digitalization journey and MACHINUM can help optimize industrial automation operations at any scale,” says Dave Morley, mid-market sales manager, Siemens Digital Industries. “Siemens developed a digitalization portfolio that drives increased usability and capability, and at a lower cost, to provide greater access to this technology. Companies that can produce quality parts faster and more efficiently will continue to outcompete competition – and integrating MACHINUM can help do just that.”
