Features

The USB Connect Pendant is a USB to CNC communication device that can be used to load and save programs from your CNC Memory and drip-feed to most CNC Machines. The USB Connect contains its own DNC firmware and requires no other device or components to work. Increase program storage at the machine with this device.

The device comes with all the components for the customer to install on your CNC machine. The USB Connect Pendant includes 8GB USB Flash Drive Stick, a panel mount USB connector/waterproof cap, display, USB cable, and a power cable. Powers by 7-28vDC from CNC. Supports up to 16GB USB flash drives.

This hardware solution becomes part of the CNC control and there is no external cabling or power to worry about.  The USB Connect will work on virtually any CNC control that supports standard serial protocols.

Support for over 80 different control brands: Siemens, Anilam, Alleb Bradley, Bridgeport, Cincinnati, Citizen, Dynapath, Fagor, Fadal, Fanuc, Haas, Yasnac, Brother, Mitsubishi, Amada, Centurion, Charmilles, Giddings & Lewis, Heidenhain, Hurco, Mazak, Milltronics, Mori Seiki, Okuma, Proto Trak, Sodick and others. Please call to confirm if you don’t see your control in this list.

Drip-feed (DNC) large files from the USB Connect device (your CNC must support this).  If you have other USB devices on your existing machines, this is a great way to standardize the method.

Don’t have time to install this device? Don’t want to dedicate it to one machine? Check out our USB Connect Portable!

Have a Mazak machine? Or need to backup to your existing CNC Network  for when computers fail?
