        & eNETDNC Pro Editor

PortCNC's eNETDNC arms companies with a new tool to improve productivity and machine utilization. True Machine Monitoring is now available using the eNETDNC system.

The machine-monitoring feature provides instant status of any CNC machine in the shop and allows for collection of real-time production data directly from the machine controls. Using the DNC connection to the machine tool and a special monitoring board, the eNET system is able to monitor the CNC control activity and provide production relevant information about the machine operation.

Using the Machine Monitoring system companies will be able to
track the following information:

  1.  Spindle On Time
  2.  True cycle time
  3.  Accurate Part Counts
  4.  Set-up time
  5.  Machine downtime due to quality,  engineering or material issues
  6.  Preventative Maintenance Log
  7.  Tool Breakage
  8.  Unscheduled Maintenance time

The machine monitoring system has the ability to monitor controller-generated data. Based on this information the system determines the machine status.

Either the machine is active and running production parts, it is in the set-up mode or the machine is idle. If the machine is idle operators are required to report why the machine is idle. This portion of the monitoring system allows companies to configure the system to track data most relevant to their operation. The flexibility of the eNET system will help create focus on the non-production time and track the causes. The monitoring set-up screen allows companies to select items critical to their operations.

One example would be waiting for support activities. Whether it is quality, engineering or other activities we all know that too often machines wait for support personnel. The eNET system will allow companies to quantify the amount of time being lost, investigate the reason for the losses and finally put solutions in place that will eliminate these problems in the future.

Machine Monitoring closes the loop in labor reporting.

Machine Monitoring provides management with another tool to optimize their operations.
