SINUMERIK*
In addition to the active memory containing the NC data to be processed on the
machines, SINUMERIK* controllers also feature a passive memory on the PCU50
or MMC. NC data in the form of NC programs, tool data or zero offset data, for
example, can be stored here. This allows NC data to be made available before
production starts. DNC IFC SINUMERIK connects the controllers to DNC via the
network. NC data can be downloaded and uploaded to the controller on the
SINUMERIK operator panel.
Controllers with serial interface
Controllers with a serial interface can be connected to DNC Cell/Plant or station
PCs directly or via interface converters (COM server). For this purpose, the serial
interface (machine server) must be configured for each CNC machine tool. NC
data is transferred to the controller via the interface of the associated station.
