Based on the FANUCSeries 0i-MODEL FPlus CNC, the FANUC CNC Simulator brings the world'smost popular CNC right into the classroom or shop trainingroom, providing students and trainees with exposure to FANUCCNC controls without the need for a full machine.
The CNC simulator is designed specifically for educational and training purposes, ensuring affordable access to the latest FANUC 0i-MODEL F Plus CNC platform in a compact and portable package, easily integrated into any classroom or training area. Add the screen display function software to take over partial control of the simulator on the PC, via the Ethernet connection.
The CNC Machining Simulator carries all the same features as the standard simulator with the addition of an internal PC, which will provide a virtual mill or lathe with real kinematics, allowing the user to view the live machine movement, tooling and part machining. Tool and workpiece setup is required and colored back plot, collision detection and sound bring the machine operating experience to life. Software only version is also available for self install and connection to the standard CNC simulator via ethernet.

Upgrade instructions
Reads and outputs various items commonly used for machine-, process- and quality-monitoring. Now includes reading of spindle load meter (percent) and spindle motor speed (rpm). Detailed reasons for errors are output.
Enables you to find out reasons for errors, monitor temperatures or power consumption or read diagnostic data from spindles, servos and other components from Fanuc controllers. Output data allows setup of our universal device driver for monitoring of these items.
Performance of all function calls is highly improved by using enhanced calling methods. A new function call that enables to read diagnosis data (e.g. alarms, temperatures, power consumption) is available. You can now output data in bit-format from 0-8 e.g. 01000001 for parameters, PMC values and diagnosis parameters.
We released an important update for all Fanuc FOCAS diagnostic tools and the universal device driver. All underlying Fanuc FOCAS library function calls were updated from Version 2.5 to the most recent Version 4.15 (2018). Due to many new functions and bug fixes updating is strongly recommended.
This fully customizable device driver for CNCnetPDM enables you to acquire machine- and performance-related data. We also fixed an issue that led to incorrect output when the length of commands exceeded 5 characters or 32 for comments in adapted device INI files.
An enhanced version of our universal device driver for Fanuc controllers is now available. This driver provides improved functions to cleanup handles and free memory if CNCnetPDM re-establishes connection to the controller. The device driver now also supports sampling rates down to 1 second. Due to compatibility issues with the most recent Fanuc controllers we removed support of the legacy fanuc.dll and fanucext.dll drivers.
We released an universal device driver for Fanuc controllers that enables usage of functions from the Fanuc FOCAS library without the need for programming. Functions, input and output parameters can be defined in an INI file that is automatically created on a per-device basis. Functions and parameters can be changed dynamically without the need to restart CNCnetPDM.
An updated version of our software tool to read Fanuc PMC data was released. The following changes are included: Added input verification and automatic correction of wrong input values. Reduced range of PMC addresses that can be read by a single query to 20. Removed incorrect output of 'float' values. Enhanced detection of PMC areas and improved output of byte, integer and long values.
We released an updated version of our diagnosis tool to read multiple parameters from Fanuc controllers. Enhancements: Added axis input to enable reading of parameters for specific axes. Added output of values for 'real' datatype. Limited number of items to be read by a single query to 20. Added input verification and automatic correction of wrong input values. Added function to read parameter information and output of individual bits, see cnc_rdparainfo for details.
An updated version of our popular extended device driver for Fanuc controllers was released. This version includes the following changes: Simplified detection of controller type for alarm output. Correct output of macro values. Output of Fanuc FOCAS errors as text to device log file. Enhanced performance by reduction of function calls per read cycle.
We released an updated version of the extended device driver for Fanuc controllers. This driver fixes an issue where output sections for specific items defined by the user in the INI file were ignored or taken from incorrect INI file sections.
We released an updated version of our popular driver development kit for Fanuc controllers. Creation of customized device drivers is far more simple in this version. By changing a few lines in a single file you can now add any function from the Fanuc Focas Library. An additional helper DLL file (customfanuc.dll) takes care of getting handles, formatting output and reporting errors. This version now can also be used for commercial projects without the need for an additional license.
This driver that outputs machine states and part counter values now also supports error reporting from the underlying Fanuc FOCAS components. Fanuc specific error codes are translated into understandable form and output to the devices log file.
Fanuc driver development kit released. The kit enables creation of user specific device drivers within minutes with minimal effort. It contains all functions used by the extended device driver for Fanuc controllers. Any function from the Fanuc Focas Library can be quickly implemented.
In addition to machine states and part counter values this driver enables you to acquire the following items: machine state number, machine state text, controller mode number, controller mode text, current nc program, main nc program, current sequence, actual feed rate, actual spindle speed, alarm status number, axis position + axis number (multiple values, up to 7 axes), tool id (read via modal function), tool id (read via parameter), alarm number (if any) and alarm text.
Utility program (GUI) to read machine and performance related information from Fanuc Focas enabled controllers (Ethernet and HSSB). Output includes: MACHINE INFORMATION, MACHINE STATE, PART COUNTER VALUE, NC PROGRAM INFORMATION, FEED RATE & SPINDLE SPEED, ALARM STATUS, POSITION DATA, TOOL DATA, ALARM STATUS (DETAILS).
