There are a few huge benefits and unique capabilities for a machine data collection system that is also tightly integrated with the DNC software. Why having a connection to DNC Software is essential for Machine Data Collection Most of these providers also lack the ability to deliver signals from legacy equipment or even basic solutions for RS-232 based equipment that is common in many manufacturers today. This is very much counter to the Industry 4.0/Smart Factories direction industry is moving in. This island is not connected to the rest of the eco-system, there is no awareness between that platform and the communications platform, or the data management platform. The downside, however, is that many companies that have not invested in a complete product portfolio are winning the low-hanging fruit, the network protocol-based data collection business, and trapping the customer on a technology island. For that reason, we welcome this development. It is great to have competition, it makes us all better and forces software developers to improve or step aside. In recent years improvements in machine data collection protocols have paved the way for more companies to offer products to the CNC machine monitoring industry.
