NC program management DNC
The NC program management DNC supports handling of the
NC programs, and reduces the costs for NC data organization.
As a result of the convenient electronic NC program management
and archiving, the NC programs are always available in
their latest version for the machines of the complete production
area. This is particularly relevant in production areas with a high
degree of flexibility and variation and where NC data frequently
change, for example in machining centers, special machines
and flexible production lines.
The NC program management DNC consists of software modules
which can be applied depending on the functional
requirements.
DNC Machine
DNC Machine is the software module for NC program transfer
between the SINUMERIK control and an NC programming workstation
(over the network file system).
DNC Cell
DNC Cell is the software module as a single-user solution for
DNC networking of a small production area.
DNC Plant
DNC Plant is the software module as a multi-user solution for
DNC networking throughout a factory.
