Software-Based CNC

The company has announced a new control for metalcutting machine tools. The CX-9010 is a software-based CNC that runs on an Intel Architecture PC platform. The system includes a NEMA 12 enclosure, color TFT flat panel display, an operator's panel and machine interface board. It is a full-featured CNC system specifically designed to maximize performance, flexibility and reliability. The CX-9010 offers standard features such as nine-axis contouring and a built-in PLC (programmable logic controller).

The control accepts RS-274 standard (G codes), as well as Fanuc and Excellon compatibility and a shopfloor conversational programming language. The control includes 64 electrically isolated inputs (24 VDC), 64 electrically isolated outputs (24 VDC), two analog inputs, 12 analog outputs and 27 high speed electrically isolated (5 VDC) inputs. This is in addition to alt of the PC architecture I/O (serial, parallel, ethernet and so on).

The control is packaged in a 0.100" MIG welded aluminum enclosure with a 0.250" front plate for structural integrity. The cabinet is totally enclosed and non-ventilated to prevent contamination. All electronics are low power and high efficiency to prevent heating. The flat panel display is an industrial NEC unit.
