Fanuc America has introduced an upgrade for legacy CNC machines running on operating systems older than Windows 10: The Panel i Replacement program retrofits Fanuc CNCs with a powerful industrial PC available with touch or non-touch LCD display, solid-state drives and Windows 10 IoT Enterprise. Fanuc CNCs running on obsolete operating systems, such as Windows 7, XP or older, no longer are supported by Microsoft and therefore not receiving their critical updates. If machines connect to an online network, this can leave sensitive manufacturing equipment open to major cybersecurity breaches. Retrofitting industrial PCs on these machines allows businesses to safely and securely connect their CNCs to their network and take advantage of Industrial Internet of Things data.
