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.
Controller information (TNC type, NC and PLC version)
Program information (program path and name)
Actual NC Program block number
Execution mode
Program running state
Override information
Axis data (number of axes, axis name and current position)
Cutter data (number of cutters, cutter name and current position)
Tool information (number, index, axis, length, radius)
PLC data (le.g. programmed & actual speed, programmed & actual feed rate, voltage and temperature information...)
Machine parameters
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 Heidenhain TNC Device Driver.
For data acquisition from controllers that do NOT have DNC Option 18 activated see these how-to instructions.
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 HeidenhainPLC you can read PLC data from different areas, scan ranges of PLC addresses and search for target values.
The tool HeidenhainPLCRW enables you to write and read PLC data as well as machine parameters.
