Title:
DATA INTERFACE DEVICE FOR USE ON A NUMERICALLY CONTROLLED MACHINE TOOL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/149879
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a data interface device (300) for data transmission between a numerically controlled machine tool (100) and an external data processing device (400 and 500), comprising: a control interface unit (310) for data transmission with a control device (200) of the machine tool (100) and a communications unit (340) for data transmission with the external data processing device. Stored configuration data (361) specifies a communication protocol used by the control device (200) from a first group of communication protocols and a communication protocol used by the external data processing device from a second group of communication protocols. The control interface unit (310) can use any protocol from a first group of communication protocols for data transmission and select the communication protocol used by the control device (200) for data transmission with the control device. The communications unit (340) can use any protocol from a second group of communication protocols for data transmission and select the communication protocol used by the external data processing device (400 or 500) for data transmission with the data processing device.
