The Framework of a Cloud-based CNC System

Based on the analysis of the typical tasks of a CNC system, there needs to be a division between the tasks executed in the cloud and those in the local. CSaaS is also responsible for transmitting the motion control data over the Internet, which imposes a new challenge, i.e. the inability of the Internet infrastructure in transmitting data in a timely manner and at the same time error-free. The mechanism of dealing with this issue and the modes of the implementation are also discussed.
