Mitsubishi Machine Tool CNC Data Acquisition Solution

In today's fast-paced and highly efficient automated manufacturing factories, maximizing production efficiency is the aspiration of every enterprise. OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) is one of the standard indicators for measuring the performance of production equipment, providing a comprehensive, reliable, and crucial means of assessing equipment efficiency.

 Simply put, the higher the OEE, the higher the production efficiency of the factory, and the greater the production expectations of the enterprise.

By implementing data acquisition and real-time monitoring of CNC machine tools, real-time feedback on equipment on/off status, alarm information, running programs, load, power, coordinates, and other information can be achieved. This allows for real-time awareness of the operating efficiency and the number of workpieces produced by each machine tool, enabling closed-loop management of production plans.

 Thus, OEE can be improved from multiple perspectives such as equipment, products, and processes, effectively enhancing the management level and market competitiveness of enterprises.

In this regard, Wutongbolian provides a comprehensive and reliable CNC data acquisition solution that supports access to data from CNC systems of various brands including Fanuc, Siemens, Mitsubishi, Heidenhain, Haas, Mazak, and Brother.

 The data is interfaced with cloud platforms or local upper computers (via 5G/4G/WIFI/Ethernet, etc.), aiming to provide factories with real-time and accurate machine tool production data and operating parameters. The data is analyzed to optimize production processes, improve production efficiency, and enhance product quality.

The main components of the solution include:

1. Data Acquisition Hardware: Wutongbolian data acquisition devices installed on Mitsubishi machine tools are used to monitor key data such as the operational status, machining parameters, load, and temperature of the machine tools in real time.
2. Communication Interface: Connects the data acquisition gateway with the communication network card of the Mitsubishi machine tool CNC control system, supporting models such as M70, M80, M700, M800, C6, and C64.
3. Remote Monitoring: Responsible for receiving, storing, and processing data from the machine tools, and providing functions such as data visualization, report generation, and historical record query, such as in MES (Manufacturing Execution System) and ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems.
4. Analysis and Optimization Tools: Utilize machine learning and data analysis techniques to conduct in-depth analysis of the acquired data, identify bottlenecks in the production process, propose optimization strategies, and assist factories in implementing lean production.

By implementing the Mitsubishi Machine Tool CNC Data Acquisition Solution, factories can monitor production status in real time, promptly identify and resolve production issues, effectively improve equipment utilization and production efficiency, reduce equipment failures and maintenance costs, and ultimately enhance product quality and competitiveness.
