Integration & strategy
What can an integrated DNC and MDC stack do that separate products cannot?

Direct answer
DNC events and CNC messages can supply MDC with program identity, cycle markers, part counts, or other context while the same communications layer moves files. This is especially useful for RS-232 machines with DPRNT capability. Integration reduces operator entry and links program movement with what the machine actually did.
Practical checkpoint
Demonstrate one automatic event—from program send or CNC message into the correct machine and job timeline—without manual re-keying.
