Apogean™ makes it easy to collect data from HAAS CNC machines

Machine shops struggle to collect data from HAAS CNC machines for OEE, shop floor analytics, and other apps.  Apogean is a lightweight app to collect data from CNC machines and convert it to almost any protocol needed for OEE, manufacturing analytics, MES, or other smart manufacturing application.

As a result, you can capture and leverage data from every critical asset. What does that mean for your machine shop with various machine types and ages? Machine tools generate hundreds of data points every millisecond, but not every smart manufacturing software application “speaks” the various proprietary protocols. If you want to use industrial analytics and apps, you need a quick, inexpensive way to get your machine data over to common systems like:

  • OEE / shop floor analytics
  • MES
  • Tool life monitoring
  • Predictive maintenance
  • Energy monitoring
  • Advanced planning and scheduling
  • Quality
  • Plant scheduling systems
  • Asset performance management

There’s no reason to mothball your legacy machines or exclude them from your analytics initiative because you can’t collect data from them. Collect data from HAAS CNC machines with the world’s only intelligent data collection solution that “speaks the same language” as all the smart manufacturing applications on the market today.

Apogean is quick and easy to set up for HAAS Classic and HAAS NGC

To use Apogean with a HAAS machine, you’ll need either a serial cable or an ethernet cable, plus a lightweight, low-cost Windows 10 or later device. Here’s how:

  1. Purchase and configure a Windows 10 (or later) edge device
    (we tested the GMKtec Mini PC Windows 11 and the Mini PC GoLite 11)
  2. Assign a unique IP address to the device, then connect the Windows device to the plant network
  3. Determine if you need a serial cable (HAAS classic) or ethernet cable (HAAS NGC) to connect the Windows device to your equipment
    (we tested this USB to RS232 DB25 serial adapter cable)
  4. Install and configure the Apogean app on the Windows device
  5. Connect the Windows device to the equipment via serial cable or ethernet cable
  6. Restart the Windows device, and Apogean will start running automatically
