You can read data from devices by using their standard communication interface, translate it into comparable information and output it to your application. CNCnet PDM also enables communication between different machine types and their control from within your application.
FIG 1: CNCnetPDM Overview
FEATURES
DEVICE CONNECTION
Establishes connections to remote devices by accessing and using their standard communication interface for example: Ethernet network, Serial interface, Bluetooth, USB, Manufacturer specific networks and bus-systems (HSSB, EIB, CAN, PROFIBUS…)
DATA ACQUISITION
Acquires data by utilizing the preferred communication protocol of the device. Collects information by either reading data in adjustable intervals (solicited messaging) or based on events (unsolicited messaging). Translates manufacturer specific output into standardized information including: Device state, Output quantity, Work order, operation and part number, Quality information, Process data
DEVICE CONTROL
Translates standardized input into manufacturer specific commands and transmits them to the device. Allows remote control, setting and changing of parameters as well as ‘tagging’ equipment with information like work order data which then can be read together with machine data.
M2M COMMUNICATION
Conditions at a local device can create standardized commands which are sent to the driver of a remote target. On reception these commands are translated into input understandable for the receiver. This data can be used to control the device, set or change parameters.
DATA OUTPUT
Outputs data acquired from all connected devices in homogenous, comparable form to files or database targets (Oracle or MS SQL Server) where it can be read by your application.
DATA INPUT
Enables you to send data and control your equipment from within your application. You can send standardized commands to CNCnetPDM which translates and transmits them to the respective device
TOP
APPLICATIONS
With CNCnetPDM you can deliver data from technical resources to any solution from MES/ERP to IoT and Big Data and everything in between. Examples:
FIG 2: Monitoring of spindle speed and feed rate
FIG 3: Throughput analysis
FIG 4: Cycle time analysis

BENEFITS
- Connects highly diverse devices directly to your applications.
- Enables consistent monitoring of your equipment and delivers actionable data in the appropriate context in near real time to responsible persons.
- Provides functionality for machine-to-machine (M2M) communication and control of technical resources from within your applications.
- Can be implemented in a timely, cost-effective and reliable manner because no additional hardware or modifications of the devices is required. A common machine park can typically be integrated with an existing IT infrastructure within weeks.
- All tasks required for setup, configuration and maintenance can be performed from a remote location.
- You profit by usage of customizable software interface modules for various device types apart from the elimination of hardware costs from significantly lower total costs of ownership on systems infrastructure.
