Improve Shop Floor Processes

Stop using USB drives, diskettes, PCMCIA cards, switch boxes, paper tape or a proprietary hardware contraption to communicate with your CNC machines, robots, CMMs, PLCs, 3D printers, laser markers, dot peen markers, tool presetters and test stands. Predator DNC provides a true network solution ensuring the latest files are pulled from your file server or Predator PDM vaults and, when changes occur, the edits are stored back on your file server. The entire manufacturing process will become more reliable and the team will become more productive while simultanously reducing scrap and avoiding product mix problems.

Network up to 4096 machines per PC, server or VM

Predator DNC software supports up to 4096 CNC machines, robots, CMMs, PLCs, 3D printers, laser markers, dot peen markers, tool presetters and test stands per PC, server or virtual machine. Simultaneously send, receive, dripfeed, download or upload CNC programs, offsets, parameters, variables and registers. Organize your manufacturing equipment by grouping them per building or cell. Network your Predator PCs to support an unlimited number of industrial manufacturing equipment.

NOTE: Multiple machines per PC may requires compatible hardware such as Predator Express, Flex/N, Flex/W or DR 2x2 series.

ERP and MES Integration

Improve shop floor workflow by integrating Predator DNC with your ERP and MES systems. Drive the manufacturing process from ERP or MES routers or schedules. Predator DNC supports paper or paperless integration with a wide range of ERP and MES systems.

Bar Code and QR Code Operation

Reduce mistakes and avoid product mixups by mounting a bar code reader or QR code reader at each CNC machine, robot, CMM, PLC, 3D printer, laser marker, dot peen marker, tool presetter and test stand. Scan one or more bar codes and have the correct programs automatically downloaded. Support for multiple head machines guarantee that the correct programs are transferred into each head.

RFID Operation

Reduce mistakes and avoid product mixups by mounting a RFID reader at each CNC machine, robot, CMM, PLC, 3D printer, laser marker, dot peen marker, tool presetter and test stand. Scan a RFID chip mounted on the fixture or part and have the correct CNC programs and CNC variables automatically downloaded. Support for multiple head machines guarantee that the correct programs are transferred into each head.

Supports Lot Numbers and Trace Codes

High volume manufacturing workflows commonly utilize lot numbers and trace codes to reduce mistakes and avoid product mixups. Unfortunately, there are no standards for lot numbers and trace codes, so Predator Software developed a flexible library to support the unique requirements of each manufacturer.

Advanced Automation Operation

Predator DNC supports advanced automation with one or more Predator DNC functions automatically triggered via digital I/O, analog I/O, CNC variables or PLC registers. Refer to the following automation examples:

• A proximity sensor toggles a digital I/O and Predator DNC will automatically send a specific set of CNC programs and/or CNC variables to the CNC machine.
• A PLC register is used to indicate the next part number to manufacture. When the PLC register changes, Predator DNC will automatically send the matching CNC programs and CNC variables to the CNC machine.
• Combine Predator DNC with Predator EditLock hardware to lock and unlock the CNC memory. This works with any CNC machine that has an edit key.
• Enhance Predator DNC with Predator Touch HMI to build one or more shop floor HMIs to trigger any Predator DNC function.

DNC Explorer™

Predator DNC software keeps things simple with its Microsoft Office® and Windows® Explorer compatible user interface. DNC Explorer includes standard features for drag and drop, shortcut menus, cut, copy & paste, object based menus, toolbars, tool tips, and online help. The entire user interface allows you to completely customize your machine layout and operation.

Remote Request™

Eliminate walking back and forth between your CNC and your PC with Remote Request. Remote Request allows the operators on the shop floor to dripfeed, download and upload CNC programs directly from their CNC controls. Predator DNC software supports a number of remote features including Remote Autoname™ for simplified uploading of NC code remotely from the floor, Remote Messaging for visibility back to the DNC server PC when errors occur, and an unlimited number of Remote Commands per CNC.

100% Network Compatible

Predator DNC software works as a gateway between your industrial manufacturing equipment and your Windows, Linux, Solaris, Mac, VMS or Unix network server. Predator DNC extends the industrial networking flexibility of Ethernet and Windows® to your CNC machines, robots, CMMs, PLCs, 3D printers, laser markers, dot peen markers, tool presetters and test stands. Support for wired and wireless Ethernet, hidden network shares, folder shortcuts, file shortcuts, zip files and active directory are included.

Server Safe™

Predator DNC software includes a Server Safe™ option for error free DNC program transfers even if the network server should crash or fail during DNC communications. This is one of many reliability features engineered into Predator DNC.

DNC in the Background

Stuck with an old DNC program that won't multi-task? Predator DNC can support up to 4096 CNC machines, robots, CMMs, PLCs, 3D printers, laser markers, dot peen markers, tool presetters and test stands simultaneously. Background operation even includes an option for running Predator DNC as a Windows Service. Predator DNC's multi-threaded design leverages hyper-threading and multi-core CPUs to balance the number of CNCs, PLCs and robots.

DNC Objects™ - Industry Leading Flexibility
