OVERVIEW | HEIDENHAIN

TOP

For machines with Heidenhain TNC/iTNC controllers CNCnetPDM enables you to acquire and monitor machine-, process-, part-counter and quality-data and integrate it seamlessly with your business information systems. It also allows to write and change PLC Data and machine parameters on these devices.

In general data acquisition with CNCnetPDM from a remote PC is possible from Heidenhain TNC 426, 430, 320, 620, 640, iTNC 530 and TNC7 controllers that have an Ethernet network connection. A list of all controllers supported by CNCnetPDM can be found here.

• Note: Our driver for machine monitoring and all diagnostic programs can be used without Heidenhain Option 18 (DNC).

Data that can be read from Heidenhain controllers

Please start by using our tool Heidenhein TNC Machine Data to test data collection from your machines with Heidenhain TNC and iTNC controllers. Instructions on controller setup are also included.

Monitoring of machine data with sampling rates down to 1 second and writing of PLC data and machine parameters is provided by our Driver for Heidenhain machine monitoring.

For data acquisition from controllers that do NOT have DNC Option 18 activated see these how-to instructions.

For automatic acquisition of Heidenhain part counter data see our article on reading of Heidenhain workpiece counters.

All acquired data can easily be accessed and used by your applications. Device data can directly be modified from your program. For bidirectional communication between machines with Heidenhain controllers connected to CNCnetPDM and your applications you can use our free Open Source Client (C-Sharp)

With Heidenhain PLC you can read PLC data from different areas, scan ranges of PLC addresses and search for target values.

The tool Heidenhain PLC RW enables you to write and read PLC data as well as machine parameters.
