CNC Machine Control Upgrades

Are your older CNC's regulated to roughing and simple jobs because they can't process a finish program? Is your control keeping a good machine from doing work it's otherwise capable of? Before you invest dollars and downtime to retrofit, take a look at what a relatively simple, inexpensive electronic upgrade can do for you. There may be a solution that will significantly increase NC program loading and processing speed, allowing for a smoother cut at a higher feed rate.

DNC - CNC File Transfer Software

DNC is designed for the factory floor to provide "high availability" and "high data integrity" communications. As a multi-tasking serial DNC software, DNC works in all Windows software. It enables a serial star topology on the factory floor. DNC can be used with our Mx1100 and Mx1050 Ethernet to Serial units for virtual connectivity at each machine.

Each machine tool has its own serial port and DNC can simultaneously enable part of the program to upload or download from any number of machine tools. DNC acts like a file server enabling each CNC operator to use the Remote Call File feature to retrieve specific files from anywhere on the network.

High End CAD and Surfacing Workstations

We design your next CAD station with your CAD/CAM software in mind. We build to exceed the specifications for WorkCN, PowerMill, Prospector, KeyCreator, MasterCAM, SurfCAM Cimatron, Pro/Engineer, Catia, Unigraphics.
