WINNUM Machines

WINNUM Machines - a solution for remote monitoring and diagnostics of production equipment, built on the basis of the Industrial Internet software platform WINNUM.

WINNUM has developed a specialized application for monitoring, monitoring and analyzing the operation of machine tools (both CNC machines and universal equipment). The solution ensures the fulfillment of the most important tasks aimed at increasing the efficiency of operation and operation of the machine fleet of the modern enterprise, increasing the indicators of uninterrupted operation, preventing equipment failure and minimizing the time of its downtime.

Objectivity of data and independence from humans

Technologies of WINNUM software solution Machines provide direct (software) connection for all major manufacturers of CNC systems, including FANUC, SIEMENS, HEIDENHAIN, MAZAK, MITSUBISHI, BALT SYSTEMS, OKUMA, HAAS, etc., as well as support for the main industrial protocols used in CNC systems. For example, OPC DA/UA - with a software connection, the number of monitoring parameters is limited only by the capabilities of the CNC system, and it is standard practice to collect 250-300 signals that describe in detail the operation of the equipment.

Evaluation of the useful operation of the equipment

The application monitors the load on the tools of the machine, evaluates the correctness of the purpose of the equipment for performing operations and the correctness of the assigned modes and provides information for competent selection of equipment and optimization of the control program modes. The purpose of the payload criteria (load, modes, etc.) is completely at the mercy of the enterprise and can be performed both for each type of equipment and for each machine individually.

Optimizing the technology, as a result, reduces equipment usage time and frees up time for the new nomenclature.

Technology Quality Assessment

By recording all indicators of the equipment in terms of the selected modes, the operations performed and the time of their execution, WINNUM provides comprehensive information on the operation of the equipment for the selected periods of time - the number of completed and incomplete operations, the time and place of their interruption, executable personnel, i.e. automatic photography taking into account machine, auxiliary and inter-operational time.

This information is used to compare with technological standards and identify reserves, increase the payload ratio, balance the load on the tool, ensure rhythmicity and consistency of quality, improve the quality of production planning.

Control of process discipline

The application records and stores all data on the equipment operating parameters, including technological - load, program, executable commands, operating modes, time to enter the mode, torque and much more, and, based on the ready-made cases of using Big Data, detects the slightest deviations from the technology and the specified rules of operation.

Built-in algorithms detect deviations for both equipment and processing programs, providing a complete understanding of the most critical manufacturing areas and technologies to look out for. The identified deviations make it possible to determine the available reserves and temporary losses affecting the economic efficiency of equipment use.

Control of tool operation

WINNUM monitors the operating time of each tool and calculates deviations from the planned time caused by a change in feed, and presents information for each tool based on the assignment of tool stores directly in the WINNUM Machines application, both in reference to the machine and to the control program. This information is subsequently used by technologists to optimize the use of the cutting tool, including its unification, setting up the tool outside the machine, changing the range of products manufactured on each machine taking into account the tool used, etc. - all this significantly reduces the time of rearrangements and increases the time of useful operation of the equipment, ensuring an increase in the production of marketable products without changing production capacity.

Managing Processing Programs

WINNUM solutions include exceptional electronic archive capabilities that are used to store version-controlled control programs, iterations and users, transfer programs to date-controlled equipment and executor, with the ability to compare the text of the actual executable control program and the program stored in the technological archive. To compare programs, a special user interface is provided, which in a visual and convenient form, including synchronous scrolling, highlighting changes, etc., displays all changes made in the program.

WINNUM thus implements full control over the quality of the technology and eliminates the possibility of unauthorized changes in programs, ensuring the quality of products established by the technology.

Control of downtime and shift-daily tasks

The special WINNUM Pad application is installed on any computer device (industrial tablet, PC or production kiosk) and provides feedback from production personnel at WINNUM and vice versa. WINNUM Pad displays the current operating modes of the equipment and has a clear and convenient user interface for entering states that cannot be obtained from the equipment in automated mode:

• Operator or other personnel, supports both standard name/password authorization and identification by barcode or RFID label
• The reason why the equipment is idle - the reasons are entered on the basis of a reference book, the composition of which is adjusted in accordance with the requirements of the enterprise
• The operation to be performed, indicating both the start and completion of the operation, which ensures timely dispatching of production

Enter messages for service services to promptly provide up-to-date and complete information about equipment status, errors, failures, etc.

Single source of production data

WINNUM software storage technologies enable the platform to be used as a single production data collection and storage system (PIMS - from the English Plant Information Management System) is used to consolidate data from different sources (for example, ASUTP, SCADA, controllers, sensors, files, etc.) and their use in the future for visualization, processing and transfer of data to corporate IT systems and business intelligence applications.

For data exchange, WINNUM software solutions have a wide toolkit - a choice of fully documented exchange protocols based on RESTful, WebSockets, JMS, as well as developer libraries for Java, Javascript,.NET languages ​ ​ (c#, cpp, vb, vba) are offered, direct integration with MS Office is provided and reporting on this basis directly in MS Excel, without using the WINNUM user interface.
