DATRON next User Management enables the creation of multiple users with different access rights on the machine. This function protects against unintended changes and ensures safe and controlled operation. Users can log in conveniently via USB key or password, and settings can be easily transferred to other machines.

With DATRON next MailAlert, you stay informed at all times. This notification function automatically sends emails for important machine events such as program completion, faults, or maintenance requirements. This allows you to stay informed even outside the workshop, react quickly, and keep production processes under control.

DATRON Live ensures that you always have an overview of the operating status of your DATRON milling machines!

• Program and remaining running time
• Real-time camera transmission of the production process
• Monitoring of compressed air, vacuum and coolant data
• Overview of the milling tools available in the magazine
• Information on the wear status of the milling tools*

^{*Optional feature: available in combination with the DATRON next sister tool management option}

The DATRON next Surface Profiling function enables precise measurement and automatic compensation of uneven workpiece surfaces. Height deviations can be corrected quickly and easily, resulting in improved machining quality. Intuitive operation and seamless camera integration make setup especially user friendly.

With the Protected Areas option, you can define specific zones within the machine workspace that the tool must not enter. This provides additional safety and prevents damage to the raw material and machine components. Easy setup and management supported by 3D visualization ensure safe and efficient machining.

Sister Tool Management in DATRON next monitors tool wear and automatically replaces worn tools without interrupting the milling program. This ensures continuous machining quality. Simple activation and extensive configuration options increase efficiency throughout the machining process.

The Multiple Execution function of DATRON next enables fast and efficient production of multiple identical parts from a single raw material. Series runs can be created within seconds at different positions without modifying the milling program. This option is ideal for series production and significantly improves productivity.

With the new one click calibration for the 3D probe, workpiece measurement becomes even more efficient and reliable. This function enables fully automatic probe calibration with minimal operator effort and is ideal for series production. It saves time, reduces potential sources of error, and ensures consistently precise measurement results without manual intervention.

The DATRON next Universal Combo Package combines three perfectly coordinated software options that significantly increase the efficiency and safety of your milling machine. With precise surface measurement, protected work areas, and fast multiple execution of workpieces, this package offers a cost effective solution for process optimization. It is ideal for users who want to operate their machine in a versatile and high performance way.

The DATRON next fitting assistant offers a powerful function to directly
establish precise fits using a convenient input mask in the control system.
The bore hole has the desired dimension, is measured automatically and
milled further, if necessary. This function supports efficient and process-sure
manufacturing and opens up a broad range of options for the optimization
of your production processes.

With Crosshair Measurement in DATRON next, components can be visually aligned in the live camera image. An overlaid crosshair supports precise positioning of the workpiece and accurate zero point setup. This function allows alignment without tactile probing and increases machining accuracy.

SimPL PLC from DATRON next enables the automatic execution of custom programs based on machine status. This function is especially useful for automating processes inside the machine area and supports efficient and smooth production.

The REST API Basic of DATRON next provides a powerful programming interface for accessing key operating parameters of your machine. Ideal for integration with third party systems such as MES, ERP, or IoT platforms, it enables monitoring and analysis of machine data via external dashboards or analysis tools. This interface opens up a wide range of possibilities for optimizing production processes.

With REST API Automation, DATRON next extends the functionality of the Basic version with automated control capabilities. In addition to accessing operating data, programs can be started, paused, or stopped, and custom variables can be read and written. This API offers maximum flexibility for controlling and adapting machines via third party software and supports seamless integration into complex manufacturing environments.

The new OPC UA interface of the DATRON next control system enables standardized data exchange based on the umati schema and is ideal for integration into modern IIoT and smart factory environments. Whether condition monitoring, production data acquisition, or connection to MES and ERP systems, open standards make DATRON machines even easier to integrate into digital production networks.

Machine app for accessing the most important operating data and statuses of your DATRON next machine. Interesting for machine operators who want to know when the job is exactly finished without having to go to the machine regularly.

For maintenance personnel who want to check whether the machine runs an error or is about to suffer one. For CAM programmers who want to know which tools are available in the machine’s magazine and what their wear condition is. Or for production managers who want to know if the machine is in operation and what its exact condition is.

The Cockpit App shows you the status notifications for your machine in the upper menu area. By pressing the button, you can see other available notifications. The section below graphically displays the processing progress, as well as the already completed time and remaining time of the program.

Below it, you can read operating data on the vacuum and input compressed air.

• The Cockpit App shows you the status notifications for your machine in the upper menu area. By pressing the button you can see other available notifications.
• The section below graphically displays the processing progress, as well as the already completed time and remaining time of the program.
• Below it, you can read operating data on the vacuum and input compressed air.

From now on, you can access the camera of your DATRON next machine remotely, giving you the opportunity to observe the current work progress live without being in front of the machine.

• Access to the camera stream
• Know what happens in the machining area
• Uncomplicated viewing of the workpiece during machining
• Checking for chip nests
• Ideal addition to the Cockpit App

The DATRON Live Remote Link app can be used for simpl macros. For example, for switching off the vacuum or shutting down the machine.

The DATRON Live "App Bundle Basic" combines two optimally coordinated apps that significantly improve your machine monitoring. With the Cockpit App and the Camera App, you can keep an eye on the operating status and the machining process of your DATRON next machines at all times. This cost-effective package enables comprehensive real-time monitoring and remote control, ideal for users who want to maximize efficiency and control in their manufacturing process.
