CNC1011

Equipped with a versatile, high-performance architecture, it can be used in many areas of application. The CNC has a modular structure: it can manage several fieldbuses and control multiple drives and local and remote input/output interfaces. Thanks to advanced algorithms, the ECS numerical control drives motion with maximum speed and precision, adapting to any type of machine tool. This makes it an ideal component for Industry 4.0, perfectly integrated into any company communication network.

In addition, the CNCs are compatible with various devices available on the market (I/Os, laser sources, focusers, etc.) and are very easy to retrofit to all previous ECS systems and third-party numerical controls.

Thanks to its interface designed specifically for touch screens and its modular, APP-based software architecture, which lets the features installed on the CNC be segmented, the CNC1011 is the perfect numerical control for marble and stone processing machines. It is designed in particular to control 3, 4 and 5-axis bridge milling machines: the operator manages the entire process on board the machine, from importing the drawing and digitising the slab with the camera, to positioning the cuts according to the veins, cutting the slab (also with automatic nesting), up to 3D machining with a cutting disc (with finishing cycles).

Characteristics

Different keyboards available

• Alphanumeric: membrane (heavy-duty) or long-stroke (ergonomic)
• Machine: membrane version, available with different layouts (handwheel, joystick)
• Machine push-button panel: modular with industrial buttons, available with different layouts (handwheel, joystick)

Functions and connectivity

• Fieldbus connectivity: EtherCAT (integrated), ECS Link (gateway), Mechatrolink® 2 (gateway), SERCOS (gateway)
• Analogue and digital interfaces (up to 2048 I/Os) via EtherCAT modules
• Drive control: in speed or position loop
• Management of gantry and tandem axes (electrical backlash)
• CNC900PC simulator: realistic machine simulation. A useful tool for the manufacturer to fine-tune the application (PLC and machine data) without the real CNC; it also lets the machine operator check machining off-line, ideal for training personnel
• CNC and/or PLC data export: configurable according to the customer’s needs, for data exchange with external management systems (MES, ERP)
• RB900Studio software: to customise the pages provided by default, or add new ones, and create a completely customised HMI
