Advantages of 8065 Family

Extended Warranty & Reliable Parts: Get extended warranty coverage (48 hours response) with the latest generation controls. Replacement parts are readily available, ensuring long-term support and minimal downtime.
Remote maintenance Access: Enjoy free remote access for service and diagnostics. Built-in TeamViewer capability allows our technicians to connect securely, perform updates, and solve issues in real time. Combined with faster processors, modern HMI, and advanced networking, this ensures quick troubleshooting and minimal machine downtime.
Faster Cycles & Higher Speed: Upgraded hardware and software deliver faster cycle times, smoother tool paths, and improved overall machining efficiency.
Advanced Graphics & Real-Time Visualization: High-resolution graphics with 2D/3D toolpath simulation. Real-time visualization with mouse control improves accuracy, setup confidence, and reduces programming errors.

Modern HMI – User Interface: A new, intuitive interface with a PC-style design. Easier navigation, improved screen layouts, and better operator productivity.
User Friendliness & Free Training: Simplified menus, conversational cycles, and free training make the transition easy. Operators can qui-ckly adapt with minimal learning curve.
Free PC Simulator (3-Axis): Train and program offline with a free PC-based simulator. Test and verify programs before running on the machine.
Advanced Conversational Programming: Create complex cycles quickly with powerful conversational programming tools, minimizing the need for manual coding.
Industry 4.0 Ready: Open connectivity with Industry 4.0 protocols and modern networking. Be prepared for smart manufacturing integration and future digital factory requirements.

What’s Included in Our Upgrade Kits

Upgrading control is more than swapping hardware. Our engineering team migrates and verifies your:

Programs & Macros: translated and tested for the new controller family.
Parameters & Offsets: transferred and validated to preserve machine behavior.
PLC/Ladder: Implemented for the new I/O structure with clear documentation and alarm handling.

Expert Configuration Recommendations

Every machine is different. We specify the right combination to match your current hardware and performance needs:

Controller platform: Modular or Compact
Drive interface: SERCOS or Analog—we adapt to your installed drives
External feedback: interface planning for encoders, scales, or other feedback devices.
PLC & I/O: mapping, digital/analog I/O counts, panel wiring, and expansion as needed.
Probing: probe input handling and probing cycles integration (touch probe or tool setter).
Operator devices: keyboard/monitor selection, handwheel integration, and panel layout recommendations.
Networking & data: Ethernet/USB file handling and backup procedures.

How the Process Works

Assessment – We review your machine (make/model), current controller, axes/spindle, drives (SERCOS/analog), feedback, I/O, and options (probe, handwheel, etc.) with a full backup of your current controller
Proposal – You receive a clear upgrade path, scope, trade-in details, and schedule.
Engineering – We build the kit, convert programs/parameters/PLC, and prepare documentation.
Delivery – Kit ships with installation guide and labeling; we schedule support resources.
Installation – Your team installs with our phone support, or choose our one-day on-site service.
Commissioning & Verification – Final checks, basic tuning validation, and handover. Training available on request.

Support Options

Phone Support (standard) – Direct access to engineers during installation.
Remote Assistance (as applicable) – Guidance for parameter checks, I/O verification, and functional testing.
One-Day On-Site Installation (optional) – We perform the changeover and commissioning on your floor.
Documentation & Backups – We supply backups and leave you with a serviceable, well-documented system.

Frequently Ask Questions

Can I keep my existing drives and motors?

Yes. We support both SERCOS and Analog drive interfaces.

Will my programs still run?

Yes. We convert CNC programs, cycles, and macros to the new controller family and verify representative parts for compatibility.

What about my PLC/ladder?

We migrate the PLC program and I/O mapping, align alarms and interlocks, and document the final configuration.

How long will the machine be down?

With our pre-engineered kit and instructions, most changeovers are designed to fit in a one-day installation window. Actual downtime depends on machine condition and site readiness.

Do you provide training?

We can provide operator and maintenance orientation with the upgrade or as a separate service.

What does the trade-in require?

The old controller must be complete and functional (boots and runs). Final credit is confirmed after inspection.

What if my machine has a probe, tool setter, or handwheel?

We plan for probe connections, tool setters, and handwheel integration during the assessment and include them in the kit and PLC mapping.

What about documentation and future service?

You receive updated I/O lists, parameter sets, and backups, making future maintenance straightforward.
