Features
The SINUMERIK 828D is a tailor-made CNC solution for milling and turning machines in the
medium performance range.
SINUMERIK 828D is a panel-based CNC (panel processing unit). A CNC, PLC, operator panel
and axis control for six drives (standard) are combined in a single unit. This design provides
a high degree of robustness by eliminating the need for hardware interfaces between the CNC
electronics board and the operator panel. In order to guarantee that operation is as low-
maintenance as possible, there are no wearing parts such as fans or back-up batteries.
● CNC operator panel with tailor-made system software versions for turning and milling
● Two operator panel versions for horizontal and vertical operator panel housings.
● Integrated full QWERTY CNC keyboard with mechanical short-stroke keys.
● USB, CompactFlash card and Ethernet interface on the operator panel front.
● Additional Ethernet interface on the rear of the CNC for a permanent factory network.
● PLC I/O Interface based on PROFINET for the connection of PLC I/O devices and a
● PP 72/48D PN and PP 72/48D 2/2A PN as PLC I/O module.
● Three handwheels can be connected.
● Optional GSM modem connection possible.
● Up to six axes/spindles for milling applications and up to eight axes/spindles for turning
● One machining channel / mode group.
● Integrated PLC based on the SIMATIC S7-200 command set with ladder logic programming.
● Standardized 3/8" threads are embedded in the upper edges of the operator panel. These
