Technological Lead - White Paper
The Advantages of Migrating from Serial to Ethernet Communications on the Shop Floor From this white paper: There is a technological shift going on out on the shop floor that is allowing machines to communicate directly with corporate information systems, generating big benefits for companies by increasing their operational efficiency. Applications are available that provide real-time machine monitoring, acquisition of Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) metrics, dynamic computer-aided machining, automatic synchronization of part programs, DNC, work order
scheduling, and central control of machine operations.
Why Make the Leap?
The Internet has changed how the world gets its information: it’s all about easy access. Manufacturing machines that communicate via serial ports run the risk of being not connected to the information highway and consequently being an unproductive asset. If these machines could be refurbished with advanced communications technology, a company could avoid spending millions on new machines. Furthermore, extracting operational information from all its machines, both new and old, would permit a company to optimize its manufacturing processes. Companies that have moved to the Ethernet report a significant improvement in efficiency and cost savings.

For discrete manufacturers, the question becomes: can the advances of the process control world and the networked office be applied to automated machines on the shop floor? In other words, can the automation be automated? For certain discrete manufacturers, the answer is clearly “yes”. The productivity of these companies has been greatly enhanced when new technologies that shave off machining time, optimize labour efficiency, and extract high levels of quality are applied to existing automated machine tools."
