Digital World

The interlinking of human, machine and production environment is one of the most important trends in production - with the aim of using the collected data in order to generate added value for the customer and further optimise their production processes. The digital products from EMCO provide the user and the machine with the best possible support.

EMCONNECT

EMCONNECT

  • EMCONNECT stands for connectivity and networking of the production environment - and enables functions such as
  • Access to office computers and CAD/CAM systems
  • Web browsers for access to information and IT applications
  • Interfaces for seamless integration into the operating environment
  • Remote diagnosis and maintenance of the machine
  • EMCONNECT creates the conditions for the paperless machine workstation
  • Clear monitoring of the current machine status and production data ensures a structured production process
  • EMCONNECT is designed as an open platform for machine integration into the production environment
  • For customer and project-specific requirements, EMCO's modular system allows particularly flexible implementation of additional applications.
  • Available throughout for all current controls (Sinumerik ONE, Heidenhain TNC 640, FANUC 31i-B) depending on the machine type.


Shopfloor Management

Shopfloor Management

  • The comprehensive Manufacturing Execution System (MES) has been seamlessly integrated into EMCONNECT, and has furthermore been designed for machine- and manufacturer-independent operation. Depending on the expansion level, the system can implement the entire range of possibilities (MDE, BDE, detailed planning etc.) that allow users to fully manage and organise the shop floor processes. Thanks to the mobile access, users can keep track of the machine and production states – anytime and anywhere. Thanks to versatile reporting and evaluation features, it is possible to continuously develop and enhance both the machine operation and the production process – a comprehensive solution for the control and management of the entire machine pool.
  • In the area of shop floor data, EMCO relies on the cooperation with a renowned partner, the company GNT.


NC-Controls

Siemens Controls

  • Merging the machine tools' technological competency with automation and digitisation, SINUMERIK CNC systems create a unique solution portfolio for increased productivity. With its Sinumerik ONE and 828D control units, Siemens offers tried and tested performance in the premium and compact classes of CNC controls.

Heidenhain Controls

  • Renowned for their full range of features, HEIDENHAIN controls can be ideally tailored to individual applications thanks to a series of feature packages and control versions.

Fanuc Controls

  • FANUC offers a wide range of CNC systems, from inexpensive controls with top-performing features to high-performance control systems for complex machining centres. Control systems, motors and amplifiers as well as cables and plugs are delivered in customised packages which are easy to install and perfectly tailored to the customer's needs. All FANUC CNC systems can be rapidly programmed and are easy to operate. They guarantee top quality and short cycle times.


CAD/CAM Simulation

ESPRIT

  • Complete CNC programming for up to 22-axis turning Turning/milling for single-spindle lathes Turning/milling for multi-carriage turning centers Turning/milling for multi-tasking machine tools including B axis
  • Simulations Dry runs in dynamic volume view Shaded in the entire working environment Machine tool, clamping devices, blank and workpiece Extensive collision detection Tool, blank, workpiece clamping devices and target/actual workpiece comparison

CPS Pilot

  • 100 % identical behavior of machine and PC Collision monitoring for clamps, parts, tools, tool holders and machine components Collisions can be completely eliminated before they even happen The machine's productivity is maximized Perfect tuning of both tooling systems Resimulation and optimization of existing NC programms Fewer rejects Ideal for internal machining and operator training courses (no machine downtimes!) Very little training required, as identical with the machine's user interface


Training

Control unit specific software WINNC

  • The unique concept of the interchangeable control can be fitted to all Concept machines. The user is trained on all CNC industry controls that are common on the market.

CAD/CAM SIMULATION

  • CAMCONCEPT is a part of the EMCO educational concept on basis of PC. This software offers a continuous didactic concept, starting with the simple creation of workpiece contours in CAD mode to the automatic interactive creation of the NC program in CAM mode. Due to the completely structured online help CamConcept is suited optimally for training.
