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  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 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.

Key Features

  • OMR-CC

    OMR-CC – Optimum machine response-contour control – reduces the cycle time without compromsing the accuracy.  Therefore the control processing adjusts to the workpiece shape and corrects position error.

  • Windows based CNC

    M800WSeparated control unit and display. Windows®-based display with the latest PC and OS offers excellent expandability. By mounting the control unit in your electrical cabinet and the possibility to use a PC-based system, the maximum in flexibility for your machine is guaranteed. Four expansion slots are provided as standard specications, allowing for expansion using option card slot.

  • 19” Multi-touch screen

    A 19″ vertical and horizontal display has been added to the M800VW Series platform. The display provides a split multiple widow that can be customized by arranging a keyboard, operation panel, document viewer or other applications that can be added to the display.

  • Unique customization

    A high level of screen customization is attainable more easily in a shorter period of time.
    Highly scalable hardware and advanced drawing application make it possible to increase the added value of machine tools.

  • High-end functions

    MillingMilling 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.

    A high level of screen customization is attainable more easily in a shorter period of time. Highly scalable hardware and advanced drawing application make it possible to increase the added value of machine tools.

  • High-speed, high-accuracy, high-quality cutting through SSS-4G control

    M800V/M80V 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.

  • Field Network Compatibility

    NetworkConnect to peripheral equipment and devices conforming to a range of field networks including CC-Link®, PROFIBUS® DP, and EtherNet/IP™.

Manufacturing Features

  • Enhanced tool management screen

    Touch ScreenThe CNC provides new tool management screen, where you can gather and manage tool-related information with greater convenience. A wide range of setting items such as tool name and tool ID are readily available. You can read or write tool data or add custom data via ladder or machining program.

  • Improved milling features using a tool spindle

    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.

  • Spindle superimposition control

    M800V/M80V 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.

  • 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.

IoT – Features

  • MTConnect Data Collector can import machine tool data into Edgecross

    The data collected from MTConnect compatible device can be imported into Edgecross and used for edge applications etc. MTConnect is an open protocol for machine tools. By using the MTConnect Adapter which is compatible with MITSUBISHI CNC M800 / M80 Series and M700/M70 Series, you can easily collect and utilize various data of the machine tool which works with MITSUBISHI CNC.

  • NC Machine Tool Connector

    A software that collects operation data and PLC device data from controllers of CNC machine tools and provides the collected data to host IT systems, industrial platforms for edge computing, edge applications etc.

  • VNC server function enables the operator to remoTely monitor and operate the NC screen.

    The NC screens can be displayed on an external PC/tablet PC. Operator can monitor the machine tool’s status and operate the NC screen without going to the factory floor, which helps to improve the operation efficiency. (The function is enabled on a non-Windows-based NC display. No external computer is required.)

  • Support for Automation

    Supports increasing automation needs. Automation can be realized more easily by simple connection and control of the peripheral devices.

  • Renewed I/O units allow the control of a number of peripherals

    I/O units have been redesigned. The renewed I/O communication method makes it possible to significantly increase the maximum number of contact points per channel, enabling a number of peripheral equipment and devices to be controlled by CNC alone.

  • Built-in PLC makes it easier to control and manage peripheral equipment and units

    Built-in PLC functionality for I/O control has been improved. This CNC supports Multi-project PLC, a feature that enables ladder logics for peripheral equipment to be managed separately from those for machine tools. This creates a more efficient environment for operators working together in developing and managing ladder logics.

  • New feature capable of stopping peripheral equipment incorporated

    M800/M80 Series has a feature called Machine Group-based Alarm Stop, which stops operation of individual machine groups if an alarm occurs when control is combined with the MDS-E/EM/EJ Series. This feature allows continuation of machining even when an alarm occurs on a loader, magazine or other peripheral equipment.

Lathe and Milling Solution
