SINUMERIK ONE digital CNC system

SINUMERIK ONE capitalizes on the advantages that the digital twin brings to machine manufacturers and users. The virtual image becomes the reference variable for real action. Quality and speed in the production of the workpiece also benefit.

Digitalization in Machine Tool Manufacturing – thinking further

Watch the recorded sessions

Benefits of the digital twin SINUMERIK ONE enables a consistent “digital first” strategy. This means that key manufacturing processes (e.g. programming, job preparation or process optimization) are always simulated first using digital twins – on detailed virtual images of the controls and machining. The result is faster communication with customers about prices and deadlines, more accurate planning and job preparation and increased productivity, even with falling batch sizes and an increasing range of variants.

Calculate more realistically

Can a component be manufactured at all? And if so, how long will it take? The digital twin answers these questions quickly and precisely. Manufacturers virtually check the suitability of the machine. The program runtime for the workpiece is also accurately calculated at this stage – on the PC in the office, away from the actual production areas.

Virtualize job preparation

Machining programs are prepared on the computer, entirely offline, using the digital twin. This means digital twins of different machines can be stored on a single PC in order to create all programs on a single workstation. Ready-to-run programs are then transferred directly from the PC to the real machine.

Virtual training

New employees can be trained using the digital twin. It is possible to check programming immediately and make errors clearly visible during training – with no risk of damage to real workpieces or machines. And meanwhile, the real machines can be used in actual production while employees train on the digital twin.

The benefits of the SINUMERIK ONE CNC control SINUMERIK ONE is optimized for performance. An innovative system architecture means the system excels with its excellent productivity. In the highly demanding area of mold making, in particular, double-digit productivity gains are a real possibility, depending on the machine. Innovative software functions leverage the potential of the latest processor technologies, so very different processing functions can be run in parallel without performance losses.

Ideal for modular as well as compact machines

SINUMERIK ONE is available in several control cabinet-based NCU variants as well as in a compact panel-based PPU (Panel Processing Unit) variant. The PPU version combines the CNC control and a 15'' or 19'' HMI panel in one component. This makes SINUMERIK ONE suitable for both modular and compact machines.

Demand-oriented machine operation

Modern machine operation is easy with SINUMERIK ONE: High-resolution multi-touch operator panels offer maximum ease of use. Right on the machine, SINUMERIK Powerride supports the run-in of the workpiece in the shortest possible time. And with the HT 10 hand-held terminal, the machine can be operated consistently in SINUMERIK Operate even on the mobile device.

Optimized usability

SINUMERIK ONE performs well on the shop floor with its modern usability and smooth operation. With SINUMERIK ONE, SINUMERIK Operate comes in a new and contemporary style. Camera applications are easy to integrate when SINUMERIK Operate is used with Display Manager. And the view of PDFs with table of contents makes it easier for machine users to utilize PDF files.

Reduced idle times

As far as idle times are concerned, with SINUMIERK ONE you enjoy a significant improvement in performance. The powerful, integrated SIMATIC S7-1500F PLC significantly reduces process idle times, e.g. for changing tools on the machines. These all add up to significant potential time savings during processing. The result is increased productivity on the shop floor.

Tool and mold making

SINUMERIK ONE increased productivity for tool and mold

Increase productivity

The new architecture of the NC core and the support of multicore technology are noticeable in the computing-intensive and highly sophisticated area of mold making. Computing-intensive tasks like collision avoidance can now be performed without restriction during the machining process. In this way, SINUMERIK ONE helps achieve double-digit percentage gains in productivity.

Shorten machining times

The proven Top Surface mold making function has now been expanded to include Top Speed for maximum surface quality in the shortest possible machining time. With Top Speed, SINUMERIK ONE achieves high contour fidelity even at high traversing speeds on the path. This allows faster machining of free-form surfaces with the same surface quality.

SINUMERIK ONE intelligent load control for tool and mold

Manufacture more intelligently

The new high-speed setting cycle DYNPREC (Dynamic Precision) was developed to manufacture even filigree components with high precision. This optimizes both speed and precision, and brings the fine finishing function into SINUMERIK. The Intelligent Load Control (ILC) cycle automatically determines how machine axis acceleration can be increased as workpiece weight decreases. This leads to a reduction in machining times. With Intelligent Dynamic Control (IDC), axes can be optimally moved regardless of their position.

Plant managers

Innovative engineering

The TIA Portal has become established as the best and most innovative engineering system on the market. With the SIMATIC S7-1500F PLC, SINUMERIK ONE is completely integrated into Portal and thus enables standardization of all engineering tasks for the operators of larger plants. SINUMERIK ONE brings together the worlds of automation and manufacturing, creating the necessary synergies.

Secure communication

Communication around machine tools is becoming more and more important. On the one hand, to supply the machine tool with orders. On the other hand, to retrieve information about the status and performance of the machine. This requires not only high-performance, but also secure communication channels. With OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) 3.0, SINUMERIK ONE supports the current and now widely used standard for vertical Ethernet communication in industrial plants.

Optimum consistency

SINUMERIK ONE is ideally equipped for consistency in all areas: As a multi-technology CNC, it is the ideal control system for operating different CNC technologies: From turning, milling and multitasking to additive manufacturing, all combined in one control. The integrated SIMATIC S7-1500F PLC also forms the bridge between CNC production and automation - they can thus be uniformly configured and easily combined.
