Okuma is equipping its high-precision CNC machine tools with the energy-saving technologies of ECO Suite Plus, significantly contributing to customers’ efforts to decarbonise their production processes.
The ECO Power Monitor enables companies to implement energy-saving measures based on their production data. Okuma’s self-developed OSP control records and logs each machine’s operating status, CO2 emissions and power consumption. This wealth of data can be analysed and displayed via the ECO Power Monitor, allowing targeted adjustments to resource requirements. This is the basis for the ECO Idling Stop: with this feature, the machine automatically detects the operating status, identifies unnecessary components, and puts them into idle mode when necessary. Since a machine tool’s auxiliary equipment usually consumes a significant amount of energy, this technology allows the machine to be operated in a much more climate-friendly and cost-effective way.
