OPC Client Application for CNC System Reliability Testing

Abstract:

In order to realize the batched and long-term testing for different models of CNC system, a testing system was built based on the Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) system architecture. It principally adopted the OLE for Process Control (OPC) technology to develop the client application. Through the millisecond access to the OPC server, the client monitors and stores all the field data points. Furthermore, the objective and accurate test data of CNC system reliability is retained. The client has been applied in analyzing the variation of all the field data points. It shows the testing method is effective.
