HEIDENHAIN Offers New Version of Machine Monitoring Software
HEIDENHAIN (Schaumburg, IL) has updated StateMonitor so the software can now also monitor tools within a connected machine, allowing users to collect current tool usage data.

With the updated software, users can now also 1) view monitored signals on the Machine Status page, as well as String Signal data, and 2) customize the machine status by adding additional ones and changing to their liking when the machine is considered “Productive.”
Users can now purchase the software with a single machine license and can add the more common five-machine license later if desired. The single machine license already contains the “OPC UA Interface,” so machines with third-party CNCs can be connected, too.
The software comes with additional software maintenance and support from HEIDENHAIN. The software maintenance plan gives customers the ability to upgrade the software each time a new release is available. Also, a new, direct international email support line is now available for highly technical or development questions.
First introduced in 2019, StateMonitor can digitally connect with a company’s machine tools and can evaluate their data during real-time manufacturing.
