TECH BRIEFS Integrated CNC Technology Solutions Edited by Chris Felix ndustrial corporations are facing deep-rooted changes in the world of manufacturing. Tese changes are taking place alongside increasing integration of product development and production processes with the beneft of innovative, high-performance software systems. Tis decisive step is an indication of accelerated growth in manufacturing. In Siemen's own ongoing development of its CNCs, the company has set its sights on optimizing the high-end Sinumerik 840D si for technological requirements. Te Sinumerik MDynamics technology package includes intelligent function extensions for three-axis and fve-axis milling applications to help increase machine efciency, particularly in high-speed cutting (HSC). Reliable protection against involuntary collisions is ensured by the "Collision Avoidance" function. In addition, the new "Nodding Compensation" compile cycle ensures increased precision during workpiece machining. Hardware architecture and intelligent control I 28 PRODUCTION MACHINING :: NOVEMBER 2013 algorithms ensure dynamic performance and accuracy when machining on multitasking machines. Collision Protection Preventing the collision of machine components in the working area of the machine, the Collision Avoidance function is concentrated on the most critical situations arising in practice—during machine setup or in case of interrupted machining. It other words, it is most efective in times when the operator intervenes in the process. Te 3D real-time collision monitoring function is active even with complex machining operations such as fve-axis simultaneous milling or turning with B axis. In this context, static and mobile machine components, as :: With the "Sinumerik Integrate for Production'" product suite, Siemens ofers a software platform that allows both machine tool builders and end-users to increase their productivity in production and service.
