Term Description

Buy & Sell Used Machining Centers with Heidenhain MillPlus CNC Control

The Heidenhain MillPlus (and its modern evolution MillPlus IT) is the iconic CNC control family developed collaboratively by Grundig and Heidenhain specifically for DMG Deckel Maho universal milling centers (DMU 50T, DMU 60T, DMU 80T, DMC 63V). It combines shopfloor menu-driven conversational programming with powerful DIN/ISO G-code capabilities and advanced cycles for versatile 3-axis and 5-axis milling.

Typical Machine Applications

  • DMG Deckel Maho Universal Mills: DMU 50T / 60T / 70V / 80T / 100T machines featuring manual or CNC rotary swivel tables.
  • DMC Vertical Machining Centers: DMC 63V, DMC 103V for batch and toolroom machining.

Lifecycle & Retrofit Advisory: Classic Industrial Control

Controllers from this era offer cast-iron electrical reliability. Operators and buyers should observe three essential operational practices:

  • Backup Battery Maintenance: The 3.6V lithium buffer battery retains all critical NCK/PLC parameters and zero offsets. Crucial: Always replace the battery while the control is powered ON to prevent catastrophic parameter loss!
  • Monitor & Memory Retrofits: Aging CRT cathode ray monitors can be upgraded with drop-in, energy-efficient LED/TFT conversion panels. Mechanical hard drives or floppy units can be updated with rugged solid-state CF/SSD adapters or USB DNC emulators.
  • Spare Parts Availability: Reconditioned modular drives, power supplies, and CPU boards remain widely accessible via certified industrial electronics specialists.
