CNC Control for Enhanced Performance and Access to Information



SMTCL-Americas has introduced its new i5 CNC Control.

Although this i5 CNC Control will not be offered to customers in North America until 2017, it has been installed on over 2,000 machines in China. The i5 is easy to use and brings a new level of information to organizations. The control will be available on most of SMTCLs 300 models and can be used on 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-axis machines. "The i5 Control was named after the characteristics it brings to customers: intelligent, internet, integrate, industry and information," said a company spokesperson.

The control is intelligent by making programming easier and more conversational. The i5 Control features 3-D color graphics for simulations as well as feature programming. It also has full tool management and remote diagnostic capabilities to help make machines more productive.

The i5 control opens up the full power of the internet to users by offering remote diagnostics and remote machine management for "lights out" operation. Email and text messages from the machine can also communicate key information to manufacturers. Apps are also available for both Android and iOS devices to make the control even more productive.

The i5 Control integrates with production systems and can provide data to measure productivity and performance. The control can also integrate with robots, automation measurement devices and rotary tables.

SMTCL's i5 Control is also made for industry, as it is built on a reliable platform of industrial processors and electronics. Based on the proven i-Port technology, the control is UL certified and performs accurately and reliably in manufacturing environments.

The information provided by the i5 Control is valuable to management by directly providing key information to finance, production and sales. The machine can directly provide information to production scheduling systems and full ERP systems.

"The i5 Control will revolutionize manufacturing by its ease-of-use and its highly rated performance," said Jerry McCarty, Chief Operating Officer of SMTCL. "In addition, it will provide accurate information directly into manufacturing production systems which otherwise had to be entered manually by machine operators. The ability of the i5 Control to work in lights out operations will also make SMTCL machines more productive and less costly."
