Description
Function
SINUMERIK 840
• Drive-based, modular CNC
• Multi-technology CNC
• Up to 31 axes/spindles per NCU*
and any number of PLC axes
• Up to 10 machining channels per
NCU*
• Modular panel concept up to
24" color display
• SIMATIC S7-300 PLC
*Up to 3 NCUs can be connected via NCU-Link
- SINUMERIK 840D sl is considered to be the standard in premium class
CNCs, which is certainly justified. High CNC performance, along with a
high degree of flexibility and openness, form the basis for almost any
machine concept.
- Maximum performance
Thanks to the drive-based high-performance NCUs (Numeri-
cal Control Units), the SINUMERIK 840 D sl – equipped with
state-of-the art multicore processor technology – allows up
to 93 axes in 30 machining channels to be controlled in the
NCU link. Machine concepts with fewer axes benefit from
the performance of the SINUMERIK 840D sl as a result of
the highest degree of machining precision with the shortest
machining times.
Open and communicative at all levels
For instance, based on the system openness of
SINUMERIK 840D sl, operation can be supplemented and
adapted, or even robots and handling systems can be
integrated. SINUMERIK 840D sl is perfectly embedded in
the Siemens automation environment using PROFINET.
Totally Integrated Automation ensures optimum interopera-
bility of all components within the automation solution –
allowing you to achieve maximum transparency and availa-
bility of your production landscape.
Intuitive and scalable
SINUMERIK panels make operation and visualization easier
for machine operators. With their touch screens, they pave
the way to create new and unique machine operating
philosophies. In addition to scalable NCU performance,
SINUMERIK 840D sl has a high degree of modularity when
it comes to the operating components. With a flexible M:N
operating concept, SINUMERIK 840D sl ideally fits the ope-
rating philosophy of any machine – from compact up to
high-end machine tools in the premium class
