Networking
SINUMERIK ONE oers integrated PROFINET functionality.
PROFINET IO is supported:
• As part of PROFINET, PROFINET IO is a communication concept that is used to implement
modular, distributed applications. PROFINET IO is based on Industrial Ethernet and allows
distributed eld and I/O equipment to be connected to the central processing unit.
• The NCU has 2 separate PROFINET interfaces:
– up to 255 PROFINET devices can be connected to X150
– up to 128 PROFINET devices can be connected to X160
The SINUMERIK NCK only supports PROFINET devices that are connected to port X150
3.3 Versions
The scalability of the hardware and software – both from a CNC perspective and in terms of
operation – means that the SINUMERIK ONE can be used in many sectors. The possibilities range
from simple positioning tasks up to complex multi-axis systems.
Application areas and performance
• On the NCU, the number of axes and/or the performance of the drive control can be increased
to 31 axes. This is achieved through the use of the NX modules. The NCU can be expanded
by up to 5 NX modules for increased performance of the drive control and number of axes.
• An NCU1750 is recommended for maximum dynamic performance and accuracy in mold
making or in the High Speed cutting sector.
The following table shows the key characteristics of the various NCU versions:
