Hi All
I need to integrate an external automation device that needs to work in tandem with CNC axes position. For that I need to obtain realtime position of the axis as well as the active tool offsets. I know we can use the MTconnnect to get that kind of data but as I understand there is a latency in the data transfer which can be as much as 10 sec. The most my application can tolerate is probably 100 milliseconds delay in reading the active data. I am open to both hardware as well as software solutions that can work with a Fanuc 30i but not limited to just that one controller.
Thanks for your help
