Siemens Unveils Sinumerik Machine Tool Robot for Precision Manufacturing
Siemens has unveiled the Sinumerik Machine Tool Robot (MTR), a groundbreaking innovation set to revolutionize high-precision manufacturing. The first companies to embrace this technology are DMG Mori and Renishaw, marking Siemens' expansion in the machine tool industry.
The MTR addresses a long-standing challenge in manufacturing: maintaining machine-tool-grade accuracy while incorporating robotic adaptability. This innovation combines CNC precision with robotic flexibility, boosting path accuracy by up to 300%.
Siemens and its partners, including leading integrators autonox and Danobat, will showcase the MTR at upcoming trade shows like JEC, EMO, and Automatica. The MTR seamlessly integrates into digital manufacturing ecosystems via Siemens Xcelerator, further enhancing its appeal.
The MTR's capabilities extend to handling challenging materials like hardened steel, thanks to its enhanced dynamic rigidity. It also excels in non-contact applications, increasing productivity by up to 40% in tasks such as laser cutting and waterjet machining. The MTR is powered by Sinumerik One, Siemens' digital-native CNC platform, offering full digital twin capability.
The Sinumerik Machine Tool Robot opens new avenues in industries such as aerospace, defense, and automotive, particularly for high-tolerance applications. With DMG Mori, Renishaw, autonox, and Danobat already on board, Siemens' MTR is poised to transform the manufacturing landscape, offering unparalleled precision and flexibility.
