The first CNC dedicated CPU

Leading the way in today’s industrial globalization, the innovative products of Mitsubishi Electric continue to exceed the expectations of users around the world. The outstanding performance of our CNC lineup consistently wins praise from users for their high levels of productivity, intuitive usability, and superior functionality. However, to develop the new M800/M80 Series, we went back to the drawing board and compleTely reexamined our cutting-edge control technologies. The result is a breakthrough in the control of high-speed, high-precision machining.

A leap in processing performance

The Pursuit of a dedicated CNC CPU began with design validation on an unprecedented scale as well as high-precision simulations to verify processing performance. Achieving a leap in processing performance demanded the integration of innovative technologies beyond optimizing processor manufacturing processes. Overcoming numerous hurdles and maximizing the potential of the processor, we succeeded in producing a CNC-dedicated CPU that achieves unprecedented high-speed processing performance.

A new chapter in CNC development

The story of the new M800/M80 Series began with conventional development to produce incremental evolutionary improvements. But our goal was a revolutionary leap in CNC performance. Our project team determined that the only way to significantly boost processing performance and totally satisfy user demands would be the creation of a CPU optimized for CNC control. This insight inspired Mitsubishi Electric’s first-ever attempt to develop a CNC-dedicated CPU and opened a new chapter in CNC development.


Functions & Design

Incorporating the CNC-dedicated CPU in the new series not only results in phenomenal processing speed, but also reduces the number of required parts, leading to fewer possibilities of failure and increasing product quality. Equipped with Mitsubishi Electric’s first-ever CNC-dedicated CPU, the long-awaited M800/M80 Series is the fruit of an original development process and the sum of our latest technologies. With the utmost confidence, we are proud to introduce the M800/M80 Series and invite customers to experience performance of the future today.

Feature

Multi Axis multi part system

Milling features and multi-axis, multi-part system control features have been significantly improved.  Progress has been made in operability, enabling operators to implement ever more complex machining in an easy and efficient manner.

Connectivity

SSS-4G control

M800/M80 Series offers SSS 4th-generation (SSS-4G) control, enabling high-speed, high-accuracy, high-quality machining. SSS-4G control provides features that are effective in reducing tact time, including optimal acceleration/deceleration suited to each axis’ characteristics. In addition, SSS-4G is capable of reducing machine vibration during high-speed cutting.

SSS-4G control allows for greater cutting accuracy in the same length of time, or shorter cutting time with the same degree of accuracy when compared to our previous models.

User friendly

Improved milling features

High-speed high-accuracy control features accumulated originally for machining centers are now available in lathe system. Fine milling can be implemented at high speeds on a lathe. This CNC enables a servo motor, instead of a spindle, to act as a tool spindle. Any of the servo control axes driven by multi-hybrid drive can be used as a tool spindle. This contributes to the downsizing of machine tools.

Performance

Intuitive Touch Screen Operation

Icon-based navigation improves usability for experienced and novice operators. Screen sizes of 10.4“ and 15“  allow improved visibility and include pinch, flick and scroll abilities like a smart phone or tablet.

M800/M80

M800/M80 Series provides new features that can maximize the full potential of machine tools, including: Variable-acceleration pre-interpolation acceleration/deceleration provides optimized acceleration, with each axis’ characteristics fully exercised. For example, allowing a linear axis to accelerate irrespective of rotary axis responsiveness. “OMR-FF control” allows for optimal position loop gain adjustment suited to each axis, leading to smoother and more accurate cutting. Other than the above, this CNC has new functionality effective for higher productivity, including “Rapid traverse block override function” that helps reduce non-cutting time by overlapping feed blocks.

Multi-axis multi-part system control features help to reduce cycle time and maintain synchronization between part systems

M800/M80 Series provides “Spindle superimposition control, “a feature that enables simultaneous execution of turni ng and center tapping, although they need to be executed individually. These features are effective in eliminating idle time, resulting in a significant reduction in tact time. This CNC also offers features that maintain synchronization between part systems, which is required for automatic lathes, in particular. These enable operators to implement even more complex machining safely and securely.

Real-time tuning helps maintain machine stability by adjusting the control gain automatically

This function estimates the work inertia and changes the speed control gain or time constant automatically according to the estimation results to suppress mechanical vibration.

Movie

Significantly easier programming

Operators can set machining cycles easily in an interactive manner while monitoring the finished work shape. In addition to the input of normal shape data, you can also extract drawing elements from CAD data in DXF format, and set them as shape data, which makes programming easier. Programmed shape can be checked in 3D graphic check before machining to check for any program error.
