Sinumerik CNC Retrofit|880 to 828D|Perth CNC retrofit by ASAP Power
A CNC retrofit is the replacement of the often old Computer Numeric Control of your machine tool with a new controller.
The key benefits of a CNC Retrofit are:
Low cost, Quick Return on Investment (ROI)
A CNC retrofit typically costs less than 15-30% of replacement value of the machine. The ROI is typically less than 12 months!
Machine availability
A key driver for a retrofit is poor machine availability due to breakdowns – a well executed retrofit will drastically improve machine availability by replacing troublesome components
Machine safety functions are bought up to current standards
Reduce maintenance costs
Reduced downtimes
Reduced mean time to repair
Improved reliability
Readily available spares
Improved programming and user interface
New machining cycles and graphic user interface drastically reduces time spent programming and increases time spent making swarf.
Faster machining cycles for complex parts
Greater productivity
More availability, easier programming, faster cycles all lead to an increase in productivity
Additional benefits of a CNC Retrofit include:
Greater precision and surface finish
Improved capability
Need an extra axis? An indexing table perhaps? Live tooling for your lathe? This is easily incorporated into a retrofit and will drastically improve your machine capability.
Increases asset life, thereby leveraging initial investment
Short downtime if using an experienced retrofit partner, such as ASAP Power
Reliable data management and increased storage capacity
Networked machines can be linked to the data processing environment
