Siemens Industrial Edge connector for FANUC CNCs

edgePlug FANUC CNC connects to FANUC CNCs without any intervention in the machine configuration. CNC controller data from the NC and PLC part is provided to the Siemens Industrial Edge applications. The edgePlug is tightly integrated into the Siemens Industrial Edge environment. 

Siemens Industrial Edge is an open, ready-to-use computing platform which makes data and software handling on the shopfloor scalable, secure, and easy to use. The Industrial Edge Ecosystem comprises edge apps, edge connectivity solutions and edge devices, both from Siemens and third parties, that can be centrally managed, monitored and updated.

Access FANUC controller data without any intervention in the controller program

• Access to FANUC 30i, 0i and PM-i CNC controllers
• Connection of up to 20 FANUC CNCs with one edgePlug instance
• No change of CNC program needed
• Multipath support

Easy Commissioning

• No data point configuration needed
• PMC variables can be individually integrated
• The data of the FANUC controllers is directly available in the edgePlug

Use Siemens Industrial Edge and Industrial Information Hub tools

• Use the Common Configurator to configure the edgePlug connectivity
• The Databus Gateway makes the controller data available at the Databus
• Existing applications which use the Databus can consume the data provided by the edgePlug without changes

Highly scalable business model

• Pay only for the FANUC controllers connected with edgePlug
• Scalable license model based on the number of FANUC controllers to access
