With SINUMERIK ONE, the first digital native CNC, Siemens is driving forward digital transformation in the machine tool industry. The new controller works with software to create the machine controller and the associated Digital Twin from one engineering system and thus contributes to the seamless integration of hardware and software. Thanks to its seamless interaction between the virtual and the real world, including high-performance hardware, SINUMERIK ONE is setting new standards in terms of productivity, performance and digitalization. It’s the future-proof machine tool controller in the increasingly digital world of manufacturing. Both machine tool builders and CNC machine users benefit from the universal digital twin for the product, production and performance.

Using Create MyVirtual Machine, machine tool builders can virtually map their entire development processes — significantly reducing the product development phase and time-to-market for new machines. The virtual preparation of machine commissioning can also reduce the duration of actual commissioning considerably. Machine users can also benefit from a “digital first” strategy for their central processes during production when they use Run MyVirtual Machine. Programming, production planning and process optimization can be simulated instead of performing them directly at the machine and non-productive times are eliminated. Even training can be carried out using the digital twin instead of training on the actual machine.

The innovations in software and in hardware of SINUMERIK ONE significantly reduces machining time. The CNC system with integrated Simatic S7-1500F PLC is available in both a control cabinet-based and panel-based version. SINUMERIK ONE perfectly fits into the Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) Portal and makes a highly efficient engineering framework available for machine tool builders. With Safety Integrated, the new SINUMERIK ONE supports the consistent Siemens industry standard for safety. With IT security integrated in the CNC by design, SINUMERIK ONE implements the multi-layer Defense-in-Depth-Concept.
