SINUMERIK 840D sl – ultimate performance in the premium class
The SINUMERIK 840D sl is quite rightly regarded as the benchmark for premium CNCs. Maximum CNC performance and unequalled flexibility and openness form the basis for almost any machine concept.

Maximum performance
SINUMERIK 840D sl offers a virtually inexhaustible performance potential, thanks to its drive-based, high-performance NCUs (Numerical Control Units) with state-of-the-art multicore processor technology. This means up to 93 axes can be controlled in 30 machining channels in the NCU link. Machine concepts that require fewer axes benefit from the performance capability of the SINUMERIK 840D sl with its combination of the highest machining precision standards and shortest machining times.
Benchmark for open architecture
The openness of the SINUMERIK 840D sl system is second to none. The CNC can be optimally adapted to the machine's technology. For example, the operating equipment can be added to and adapted, and even robots and handling systems can be integrated. Thanks to the openness in the CNC kernel and in the drive, unique mechanical concepts – such as adapted control algorithms and specific kinematic transformations – can be implemented.
Communication at all levels
SINUMERIK 840D sl fits seamlessly into the Siemens automation world with PROFINET, the leading Industrial Ethernet standard. Totally Integrated Automation stands for a unique level of integration – from field level through production up to the corporate level. The result is optimum interaction between all components of the automation system and, as a consequence, an extremely transparent, highly available manufacturing process.
Intuitive operator control and monitoring
SINUMERIK panels make operator control and monitoring easier for machine operators. With their touch screens, they open the way to a new machine operating philosophy. In conjunction with the state-of-the-art SINUMERIK Operate user interface, touch and gesture control are establishing themselves in production. In addition, various mobile SINUMERIK handheld terminals such as SINUMERIK HT 8 are available to the machine operator, facilitating simplified operation thanks to the functional combination of the operator and machine control panels.
Modular and scalable
In addition to scalable NCU performance, SINUMERIK 840D sl has a high degree of modularity when it comes to the operating components. With a flexible M:N operating concept, for example, any operator panel can be combined with the NCU, the SINUMERIK 840D sl ideally fits the operating philosophy of compact machines through to state-of-the-art high-end machine concepts.
