Siemens CNC system maintenanceWhy is Siemens Numerical Control said to be a catalyst that drives enterprises to make a fortune? The reason is simple. In the increasingly fierce market environment, Siemens CNC has always maintained its advantages in quality and price. Siemens CNC has a high sales volume and its future prospects are immeasurable. Let's first introduce the quality advantages of Siemens CNC.
Siemens CNC system maintenanceWhen it comes to Siemens CNC systems, SINUMERIK 840D is undoubtedly an outstanding representative of Siemens' series of CNC products, and what is the implementation of this system? The answer comes from its successful users. It can be a machine, a 'brain', that can complete up to 31 axis control in the same 10 channels. It can not only achieve various goals in machine complexity and reliable control, but also showcase its skills in maglev train engineering - a track linear motor power driven coil laying machine with up to 7 channels and 60 axes controlled by 840D. Its significance lies in the openness of the system.
Open technology platform
What is the openness of a numerical control system? Wang Gang used a simple example to explain that the cam grinding function integrated in Siemens' early production SINUMERIK 840C was replaced by various interpolation functions such as polynomial interpolation, spline interpolation, table interpolation, etc. in SINUMERIK 840D. Many netizens have asked about the reason, in fact, more European machine tool manufacturers have their own cam algorithms and technologies, and integrate their mechanical systems, not wanting their * technology to be integrated into standard CNC systems, in order to maintain lasting competitiveness. “
This is a simple, open and persuasive example of Siemens - providing technological possibilities for machine tool factories of every gender.
In fact, the needs of customers and CNC machine tool manufacturers are the driving force for development. Similarly, the user's demand for openness in CNC systems is the design foundation of Siemens CNC systems. Do not use open CNC systems, as the market competition for CNC machine tools will shift towards more intense price competition. In recent years, China's machine tool industry has made significant progress and is gradually changing its development model - developing core technologies. Therefore, higher and higher requirements have been put forward for the openness of CNC systems. The parallel machine tool developed and produced by Hailiang utilizes the openness of the 840D CNC system to achieve complex coordinate control.
The openness of CNC systems exists in three aspects: human-machine interface openness, open PLC and NC openness. The SINUMERIK 840D HMI hardware platform is an industrial PC that uses the Windows operating system. Due to the use of the Windows operating system platform, it is possible to integrate many application software into the CNC system. We need to invest less in hardware and software to generate an easy-to-use digital system for copying. CAD combined with the Windows operating system has become what we call CAD-CNC integrated design; The PLC used in Siemens CNC system is Siemens standard PLC, which makes it easy to integrate the CNC system into workshop or factory level automation systems, apply motion control information systems, and automate factories. The Siemens powertrain solution Transline2000 is a typical application and has proven to be effective in many automobile manufacturers in China. Numerical control is a combination of 840D and driver, which enables effective and reliable high-speed data processing between NC and driver, undoubtedly laying the foundation for high-speed processing of numerical control systems. In addition, Siemens has also reserved the possibility of assembly for its partners, such as Siemens reserving interfaces for Marposs' measuring instruments on the human-machine interface. In fact, the openness of Siemens CNC system is not only limited to 840D *, but also the existence of its entire product system. Even the low-end SINUMERIK □ 801 provides source code for its technical cycle. With it, machine tool manufacturers can design customized process cycles according to customer needs, and you can also achieve turnkey value-added sales.
In a broader sense, Siemens is not confined to open CNC systems. As an industrial automation and drive technology group, Siemens' research and development process for CNC systems is based on Siemens' fully integrated automation technology, providing a range of industrial solutions. Wang Gang explained, "Although openness increases the difficulty of system application, the concept of technical added value can be ignored. In addition, with the support of Siemens' professional technical team, our customers benefit from the CNC machine tool business. In fact, Siemens CNC systems are very simple and convenient for standard machine tool applications. Especially for low-end products in applications, they provide many simplified debugging manufacturing methods, such as concise debugging manuals, system configuration initialization packages, PLC subroutine libraries. In fact, Siemens is also very concerned about the interests of end customers. Chinese characters are fully utilized in the system, and alarms can also be used. Not only text characters, but also the definition of PLC variables, annotation of processing programs, and even the names of processing programs can be written in Chinese characters. In addition, the system provides tool setting and workpiece setting functions with graphics, as well as a contour calculator, which provides greater convenience for users to program and operate. ”
Developing together with China's machine tool industry
In Wang Gang's concept, the numerical control system has always been defined as a component of the machine tool, despite its status being equivalent to the human brain. A good machine tool is not because of a good system, but because of a good mechanism. It's like having a good body and flexible control of the brain, "Wang Gang said.
Many customers, when inquiring about the price of 840D, assume that 840D is a single component. In fact, SINUMERIK 840D is a system composed of various control components, and its price depends on the configuration of the system. Various hardware configurations can be adjusted according to the needs of the application, in order to achieve the best performance price ratio. An optional enhancement system can be formed in the combination of this configuration. Even different Siemens systems, based on Siemens' consistent adherence to product identity, can achieve interoperability. This future technological development provides users with the possibility of adding value. Siemens has always been the cornerstone of stability and the development of Siemens.
In the subsequent analysis, the machine is a terminal product, and the needs of users determine the comparison and competition among machine tool enterprises. Compared to European companies, Chinese machine tool manufacturing enterprises are as convenient to operate as a PC. European machine tool factories hope to have an independent technological feature. Such fierce competition makes our technology, not price, the key. So, Siemens has never given up on its persistence in technological development. More importantly, Siemens has very strict management processes to ensure quality and product quality.
In the hearts of Wang Gang and all Siemens employees, Siemens China is not just a foreign-funded enterprise, it is a Chinese enterprise. Chinese citizens have made efforts to gather wisdom and achieve technological progress. As Siemens' largest overseas R&D and production base, Siemens Nanjing Numerical Control Co., Ltd. has a R&D team of over 100 people, and the focus of its work is on the research and development of new products, with representative achievements being SINUMERIK 801, SINUMERIK 802S/C, and SINUMERIK 802Dsl. Adopting unified quality standards, local research and development, local manufacturing, and sales department of Siemens CNC in Nanjing. Siemens employees are proud to have manufactured significant CNC systems for export worldwide in China. For Chinese users, the R&D and production base located in Nanjing undoubtedly enhances Siemens CNC systems' ability to respond quickly to customer needs.
The importance of the Chinese market to Siemens is self-evident, and Siemens and all employees are more willing to integrate Siemens' technology and concepts into the production of China's machine tool industry. Siemens has become the economic lifeline of China. "Innovation and harmony" have always been Siemens' core values, which are fully reflected in Siemens' research and development strategy for new products. And 'responsibility' will be more reflected in Siemens' promotion of China's machine tool industry.
The core values of such brands are cultural and symbolic significance, mainly composed of emotional and expressive interests. They can accommodate physical attributes and diverse product categories, as long as these products can become carriers of brand culture.
Mainly to let the company understand that innovation is the best way to enter the market. The development of new materials has played a driving role in the Siemens CNC industry. After researching experts, many valuable data have been summarized for Siemens CNC. The promotion of new materials and processes will further enhance the performance of Siemens CNC in all aspects. The quality has improved, in order to enhance the development efficiency of the enterprise.
