ADAPTER | MTCONNECT

TOP

The CNCnetPDM MTConnect Adapter provides a powerful Application Program Interface (API) that enables bidirectional communication between manufacturing devices connected to CNCnetPDM and your applications or any MTConnect compatible program such as the Standard MTConnect Agent.

FEATURES | BENEFITSRESOURCES | SPECIFICATIONS

FEATURES

  • Allows you to directly access and read machine data from within your applications in near real time
  • Enables to control your equipment by setting or changing parameters or variables
  • You can ‘tag’ devices with operational data (work-order, operation and/or part number) and deliver it together with device data
  • Provides functionality to switch on/off controller communication and set active shifts for your machines

BENEFITS

The CNCnetPDM MTConnect Adapter enables you to:

  • Acquire data simultaneously from multiple machines by using a single adapter
  • Mix controllers from different manufacturers within a single adapter
  • Eliminate the need to install third party adapter programs at the controllers
  • Control different device types by your applications by using standardized commands
  • Adapt all output items and tag tames on a per-machine basis according to your needs
  • Standardize MTConnect Agent configuration
  • Avoid hardcoded MTConnect adapter output delivered by machine or software vendors
  • Output data from multiple devices to a single agent
  • Reduce costs for implementation and maintenance by using one solution for all devices
