CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines in industrial automation, as an important tool in modern manufacturing, have been expanding their performance and application range with the development of the times. In this process, industrial displays, as the core components of CNC machine interaction, play a vital role. Today, Beilian Display will discuss in detail the application of industrial displays on CNC machines and their importance.
Functional characteristics of industrial displays
Real-time monitoring and control
In the machining process of CNC machines, industrial displays are not only used to monitor the production process in real time, but also display key information such as machine status, production data, alarm information, etc. The operator can remotely control and adjust parameters via a graphical user interface (GUI) on the display to ensure a smooth machining process. This ability of real-time monitoring and remote control greatly improves production efficiency and reduces the cost of manual intervention.
Ease of human-computer interaction
Industrial touchscreen displays allow operators to operate directly on the screen, such as entering data, selecting menus, starting or stopping equipment, and more. This touchscreen technology simplifies the operation process, reduces the risk of misoperation, and improves operational efficiency. Through an intuitive graphical interface, operators can easily understand the status of the machine and make precise controls and adjustments.
Data display and fault diagnosis
Industrial displays are also used to display real-time data of CNC machines, such as temperature, pressure, speed, position, etc. Through the visual interface, operators can intuitively understand the health status of the equipment, so as to make timely adjustments and decisions. When a machine fails, the industrial display can display fault codes or error messages to help operators or maintenance personnel quickly locate the problem, and perform operations such as calibration, parameter setting, or firmware update of the equipment through the maintenance menu.
Specific applications of industrial displays in CNC machines
Control and editing of machining programs
Modern CNC systems have adopted industrial tablet computers to directly control machine tools, and the control programs are stored in the memory of industrial tablet computers. This method is flexible and easy to modify and expand functions. As the output device of the numerical control system, the industrial display is responsible for displaying information such as processing programs, machine tool status and operation prompts. Through the graphical interface on the display, the operator can intuitively see each step of the machining process and can modify or adjust the machining program at any time as needed.
Real-time data display and monitoring
In the CNC machining process, the industrial display can display various operating parameters of the machine tool in real time, such as spindle speed, feed rate, cutting depth, etc. These data are crucial for operators because they have a direct impact on the quality and efficiency of the process. With real-time data on the display, the operator can adjust the machining parameters in time to ensure the stability and accuracy of the machining process.
Fault diagnosis and alarm
When a CNC machine fails, the industrial display will immediately display the fault code or error message to help the operator quickly locate the problem. This fault diagnosis not only improves maintenance efficiency, but also reduces the impact of failures on production. At the same time, the industrial display also supports the maintenance menu function, which allows maintenance personnel to perform operations such as calibration, parameter setting, or firmware update of the equipment through the display to ensure that the equipment is always in the best condition.
What are the advantages of industrial displays
High durability: Industrial displays are usually designed to be dustproof, waterproof, shockproof, and high-temperature resistant, and can adapt to various harsh industrial environments.
Wide range of environmental adaptability: Supports a wide temperature range to ensure reliable display and interaction in a wide range of conditions.
Customized design: According to the needs of different CNC machines, industrial displays can be customized designed, such as size, shape, installation method, interface type, etc.
Remote access and management: Through network connection, industrial displays can realize remote access and management functions, improving the manageability and maintenance efficiency of equipment.
