Abstract: To realize the extensive interconnection and remote monitoring of manufacturing equipment,the basic approach to networking devices by means of MTConnect protocols was studied,which included the implementation architecture of monitoring system,the information model for devices,and the workflow for data acquisition.A remote monitoring system in accordance with MTConnect for Numerical Control (NC) engraving machines was designed,which was able to collect data in real time through internet by using the communication between the Agent and the client.The components and attributes of the concrete machine were analyzed,the device model for the machine was constructed based on MTConnect,and its description file was composed in XML.The Agent,the client and the necessary data processing as well as visualization software modules were developed through C# language and development tools provided by Association for Manufacturing Technology.Thus the proposed system was implemented.The system was tested through actual machining and monitoring,and the results showed that the implemented system could collect the runtime data conveniently and reliably from the networked machine tool,which demonstrated the feasibility and effectiveness of MTConnect approach to some extent.
