Abstract
The new cellular network standard 5G is characterized by greater bandwidth, lower latencies, higher reliabilities, and a higher number of recipients per cell compared to industrial 4G or wireless networks. This makes 5G a promising technology in latency-critical applications in manufacturing, such as machine tool control systems. Today, machine tools are mostly controlled with on-site industrial PCs, which require space, are often heterogeneous, and have limited processing power. 5G potentially enables to migrate the machine control system to external computing resources. This paper aims at elaborating resulting potentials by conceptualizing and outlining an architecture that integrates the requirements and capabilities of 5G and a machine tool control system.
