MACHINUM

On track to achieve higher productivity with MACHINUM (CNC Shopfloor Management Software)

Digitalization is changing production with a lasting effect. It enables machine manufacturers and operators to respond more flexibly to the demands of the market and to enhance their productivity. With the Digital Enterprise Suite, Siemens offers an integrated hardware and software portfolio for digital enterprises.

Particularly for the machine tool sector, Siemens bundles its digitalization portfolio under the term MACHINUM. With these unique digitalization solutions, machine tool companies can significantly increase their productivity in production, significantly reduce their development and market launch times, thus consolidating and enhancing their competitiveness in global markets. MACHINUM allows higher speeds, increased flexibility, enhanced quality, improved efficiency and more safety on the machine, as well as new business models, for example, in the service area.

MACHINUM includes applications which are based on a scaled IT infrastructure and offer customized functionalities for engineering and production — from machine-oriented solutions with SINUMERIK to the full performance capability of Industrial Operations X. As part of the Industrial Operations X portfolio, the Insights Hub provides the commercial benefits of IoT data, while the combined IoT functions of Industrial Operations X enable customers, partners and organizations in the entire Siemens Xcelerator ecosystem to develop applications on a sector-specific basis.

MACHINUM: Increased productivity in engineering

Numerous applications help to make the mechanical and electrical development of your machines more efficient and to optimize the production process. In order to be able to react quickly and flexibly to market and customer requirements, machine manufacturers are increasingly virtualizing and parallelizing the development phases of new machines. The prerequisite for this is the consistent use of all digitalization options — from the initial idea to the commissioning of the finished machine.

MACHINUM: Increased productivity in manufacturing

Digitalization options provide support for optimizing your production planning in order to ensure high-quality parts production, while at the same time raising the productivity of the machine and the entire production process.

Machine tools are intelligently integrated into manufacturing processes. A precondition of this is the networking of job planning and production, and between machines. This permits error-free transfer of programs and data.

Mcenter – the shopfloor platform from Siemens – offers a wide range of SINUMERIK CNC functions for production-oriented applications. The platform networks machine tools at production plants – with the applications delivering great potential for boosting productivity.

CNC and HMI performance

The projected utilization of the system is under the control of the machine manufacturer.

When combining various CNC options/functions, the CNC can reach its performance limit. The remedy here is to use the next bigger hardware.

The machine manufacturer must ensure by configuration that the functions/options used are executable on the NCU.

Cybersecurity information:

Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial cybersecurity functions that support the secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.

In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial cybersecurity concept. Siemens’ products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.

Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems, machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components should only be connected to an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a connection is necessary and only when appropriate security measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network segmentation) are in place.

For additional information on industrial cybersecurity measures that may be implemented, please visit

Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more secure. Siemens strongly recommends that product updates are applied as soon as they are available and that the latest product versions are used. Use of product versions that are no longer supported, and failure to apply the latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber threats.
