FANUC MT-LINKI: A SIMPLE DATA COLLECTION METHOD
Continuous monitoring of the machine park
The revolution of Industry 4.0 is just a click away with FANUC MT-LINKi. This integrated PC software enables the collection of CNC data and monitoring of production equipment, such as machine tools, robots and PLCs. The system allows you to connect the machine park of your smart factory to production control and supervision systems, thus providing several benefits including analysis of production status, fault detection and optimised resource planning.
FANUC MT-LINKi allows you to monitor the production status of the entire factory in real time and in an intuitive way. In the event of faults or breakdowns, the system promptly activates the appropriate safety measures, sending alarm notifications to the operator. No special hardware is required to install the software, and configuration is quick and easy.
360-degree supervision and diagnostics
With FANUC MT-LINKi you can review the operating data of each individual machine at any time, and compare them with the production schedule. In addition, you can check the degree of use of the equipment, identifying any that are not used very often. This allows you to optimise the planning of the factory resources.
All diagnostic data, such as alarm and programme history, can be viewed directly on the computer. Planning and preparation of reports in Excel format also becomes automatic with FANUC MT-LINKi.

CNC retrofitting: what it is, the benefits, and when it is a better option than buying a new machine
Many companies face the same dilemma: is it better to replace an outdated CNC machine tool, or is it possible to upgrade it whilst retaining the existing structure?
In many cases, the answer is a CNC retrofit.
When the machine’s mechanics are still reliable but the electronics, controls or certain components are beginning to show operational limitations, a retrofit can be a practical solution for improving productivity, reliability and operational continuity without having to make the investment required for a new machine tool.
For machine shops, production managers and plant managers, retrofitting often allows for reduced machine downtime, extends the lifespan of equipment and integrates new technologies whilst retaining the existing infrastructure.

Riparazione azionamenti CNC: come funziona davvero e perché scegliere un laboratorio specializzato
Nel mondo dell’automazione CNC, ogni fermo macchina ha un impatto diretto su produttività, consegne e marginalità.
Tra le cause più critiche ci sono i guasti agli azionamenti CNC, componenti fondamentali per il controllo del movimento degli assi e del mandrino. Quando un drive si blocca, la macchina si ferma. E spesso, senza un partner specializzato, anche la produzione.
La riparazione degli azionamenti CNC diventa quindi una scelta strategica, soprattutto per officine che utilizzano macchine utensili ancora performanti ma non più supportate da ricambi facilmente reperibili.
È qui che entra in gioco il laboratorio Assistec: un servizio strutturato, rapido e garantito, progettato per ridurre al minimo il fermo macchina.

CNC Support: A Comprehensive Practical Guide for Workshops and Maintenance Managers
In a modern engineering workshop, a CNC machine that has stopped working is not just a technical problem.
It means production comes to a standstill.
It leads to delayed deliveries.
It results in direct and indirect costs that mount up by the hour.
How can this be avoided? With an efficient CNC support service.
When it comes to CNC support, many people think of repairs for electronic faults. In reality, a professional support service must cover three fundamental pillars:
- Electronics
- Mechanics
- Contractual structure and preventive maintenance
In this guide, we take a practical look at what a comprehensive CNC machine support service should include, with a useful checklist to help you assess whether you are on the right track.
