Adaptive Control System that Connects
Machine Tool CNC and Sensing Devices
AdvancedControl® is a system for mutual communication between machine tool CNCs, Yamakin’s devices, peripherals, and more.
By combining data from Yamakin’s devices with equipment data, it is possible to create new value and support advanced machining such as stabilizing and improving production efficiency and automation.
Compatible with a wide range of machine tool
CNCs
Sensor and equipment
data collection is possible
Data integration and
threshold control are possible
AdvancedControl® can be connected to the machine tool CNC via a PC with a single LAN cable.
01 It is compatible with CNCs from major machine tool manufacturers such as FANUC, Brother, Mitsubishi Electric, and Okuma.
02 In addition to data from Yamakin’s devices, various data from the machine tool CNC (absolute coordinates, spindle speed, each axis servo motor load, macro variables, etc.) can be collected. Data from other sensors and equipment can also be collected as needed.
03 It is also possible to integrate the obtained data and control the operation of the machine tool based on set threshold values.
