Software Overview

Wonderware's DNC Professional^™ software package provides robust NC solutions for the smallest job shops up to large, fully networked facilities. Wonderware DNC Professional is a distributed numerical control (DNC) system for use in shops equipped with NC (numerical control) and/or CNC (computer numerical control) machine tools. It has been designed to run either on a standalone PC or on a LAN and can be installed quickly with minimal disruption to your production.

Taking full advantage of the power and performance of a 32-bit multi-threaded environment, Wonderware DNC Professional offers a complete DNC system through discrete modules designed to be easy to use. The proven efficiency of the graphical interface gives you full DNC capabilities with minimal disruption to your current operations. Engineered to run on your existing PCs with or without a network, Wonderware DNC Software includes configurable security, open network capability, document management (features not usually found in other DNC systems) and more, as well as a direct upgrade path to the fully integrated Factelligence for Shops Manufacturing Execution System (MES). With their modules working in complete harmony, Wonderware DNC Professional and Folders Lite can control one work center or your entire shop floor and put you on the path to paperless manufacturing.

Wonderware's DNC Professional Goes Wireless

Save thousands in cabling costs by using Wireless DNC to connect your CNC controls to the DNC Software. Using this true Ethernet wireless solution you can move your CNC machines and reorganize manufacturing cells without re-running cables or reconfiguring software. Eliminate wiring issues such as difficult access, electrical surges, cranes, etc. A wireless Ethernet serial adapter is located at each CNC machine and uses standard 802.11b wireless Ethernet to network each machine back to local Access Points. The Access Points then communicate into DNC Professional using Remote Request or CNC Direct. read more
