CELOS X: Future-proof manufacturing platform
With "Machining Transformation (MX)", DMG MORI supports its customers in meeting the challenges associated with increasingly efficient and sustainable production. The three important pillars of Machining Transformation – process integration, automation, and digital transformation (DX) – have a significant influence on the green transformation (GX) as the fourth pillar.
The aim of digital transformation is to increase productivity in manufacturing companies and reduce energy consumption. As a future-proof platform for production digitization, CELOS X plays a central role in the digital transformation.
CELOS X – THE FUTURE-PROOF SOLUTION
Digital Transformation with DMG MORI & CELOS X
Digital transformation (DX) uses intelligent technologies to optimize processes and thus acts as an "enabler" for the transformation of manufacturing. DMG MORI's digital ecosystem creates data transparency across the entire manufacturing process for knowledge-based decisions. The aim of digital transformation is to increase productivity in manufacturing companies and reduce energy consumption.
CELOS X is at the heart of the digital transformation (DX) and, thanks to the benefits of the applications as part of the CELOS Xperience, enables easy operation in process integration, ensures extended spindle hours in automation and increases energy efficiency for the green transformation (GX).
Celos X Highlights
CELOS X – Manufacturing platform for future-proof solutions
CELOS is the digital brand core of DMG MORI and thus the heart of the Digital Transformation (DX). CELOS had its premiere over 10 years ago as the world's first APP-based machine control system. Today, manufacturing companies are facing new challenges. With CELOS X, DMG MORI has created a platform that can scale with the increasing performance of machine tools and automation solutions.
CELOS X offers a holistic solution for the digital transformation of a company in manufacturing and is DMG MORI's answer to global challenges such as the shortage of skilled workers and increasing price pressure.
CELOS X comprises both the "digital toolbox" with the CELOS Xperience and the CELOS Xchange data platform as a "multifunctional control center". The interaction of these two components enables a comprehensive and seamless digital experience for users.
Machine Monitoring & Connectivity with CELOS Xchange: Transforming the Industrial IoT
CELOS X offers unprecedented consistency across all DMG MORI control variants. For the first time, entire shop floor processes can be uniformly mapped end-to-end in one solution. CELOS X will also be kept up to date via self-executable updates and its range of functions will be continuously expanded – as simply and transparently as is otherwise only known from smartphones.
In combination with consistent DMG MORI CONNECTIVITY, CELOS X impresses sovereign and highly secure environment for the vertical integration of the manufacturing environment with the corporate IT and supports companies in facing the challenges of digital transformation in CNC manufacturing. It is also the basis for networking with supply chains and global value creation networks. CELOS X is therefore a catalyst for the process integration of DMG MORI.

ERGOline X
ERGOline X – Innovative control panels for every control type
ERGOline X is introduced with the launch of CELOS X. The successor to the ERGOline IV control panel offers the machine operator an even more intuitive user experience, with optimized ergonomics and functionality. The ERGOline X control panel gives the user access to CELOS Xperience and the native NC control.
When developing the new ERGOline X panels with a 24″ display, the focus was on the user experience and the ergonomic arrangement of operating elements.
Innovative operating elements, such as the SMARTkey and SMARTride, enable the highest safety standards and facilitate an easier handling of complex machine tools. The new SMARTride makes machine operation even safer, more efficient and ergonomic. Instead of the two rotary knobs, employees now control feed and rapid traverse using a single button with haptic feedback. This gives the operator a better ergonomic position in relation to the machine and allows them to focus on the workpiece or the infeed process.
The revised arrangement of the operating elements and the use of the latest touch technology make operation a real experience.
- Personalized access rights depending on user level
- Compact credit card format
- Independtly personalized
- Integrated “panic function” to instantly reduce the feed rate / rapid traverse to 0 %
- Integrated haptic feedback to recognize 0 % & 100 %
- Feed rate, rapid traverse & NC-start combined in one control element
* Only available for SIEMENS & HEIDENHAIN
- Standardized user interface for CELOS
- Independent of the CNC control

Guided Digital Tooling
CELOS X Tool Master & Tool Data Exchange (TDE)
Transferring or entering the correct tool data into the machine tool is crucial for high process reliability. Incorrect entries can damage both workpieces and the machine, requiring careful attention, which can be time-consuming.
With CELOS X Tool Master, operators are guided safely to set up tools in the control system. Tool Data Exchange (TDE) extension eliminates the need for manual input at the control panel, allowing operators to quickly and securely scan the tool. After scanning, they only need to load the tool into the machine's magazine.
Very cool: the machine automatically finds a free slot and positions the magazine. This reduces tool setup times by up to 80% and enables low-skilled workers to perform these tasks.
- Even less qualified workers can perform tool loading tasks easily
- 80% faster tool loading operation
- Avoidance of incorrect tool data leading crashes
- No manual input of tool data required anymore

Green Transformation
DX meets GX – Sustainable & energy efficient
CELOS X is driving Green Transformation in manufacturing. Three powerful CELOS X apps monitor and reduce energy, track energy consumption, costs, and CO₂ emissions in real time, save energy through automatic shutdowns, and detect air leaks early.
The CELOS X app Energy Monitoring visualizes energy consumption and delivers insights to support energy efficiency improvements. It offers analysis options on the control panel of energy consumption over time, per execution of an NC program, or aggregated (workpiece-related).
A factor-based calculation of energy costs and CO2 emissions is also part for the functionality. The export of energy data and the direct connection with DMG MORI’s monitoring solution Messenger is also possible.
- Tracking of energy consumption [kWh], energy costs [€] and CO2 emissions [kg] in real time
- Energy data export possible
- Available in Messenger
Energy Saving is part of the GREENMODE measure Advanced Auto Shutdown and is available as a standalone app in CELOS X. It is connected to the native solutions for Heidenhain and Siemens control units. Energy Saving increase the energy efficiency without additional hardware. It includes the shutdown of screens, lighting, pneumatics and drives and offers an automatic wake-up / warm-up function.
- New power saving timer modes ECO/ECO+
- Auto wake-up / Auto warm-up
Air Leakage Monitoring is also part of the GREENMODE measure Pneumatics Monitoring and is a new standalone app in CELOS X. It is designed to detect and manage air leaks on the machine tool. It is based on a Self-learning algorithm that knows how much air is consumed in which state. Based on an algorithm, the app detects when the consumption is higher than it should be (leakage).
- Detects air leaks early & cut waste
- Live monitoring & notifications
- Self-learning fingerprint
