1. A device for controlling drives of machine tools or production machines, comprising:
- a device controller that controls the device;
a permanent storage medium associated with the device and storing externally generated process reference values in form of files in a standard format;
a trace module that records actual process values after the trace module is triggered by an event in the device, wherein the actual process values are permanently stored on the permanent storage medium in form of files having a standard file format; and
an evaluation unit comparing the process reference values with the actual process values of the device and evaluating the actual process values using evaluation functions,wherein a time when the trace module is triggered or parameters present in the device controller at the time when the trace module is triggered are stored in the storage medium.

Abstract
A device for controlling drives of machine tools or production machines is disclosed, whereby the device includes a permanent storage medium associated with the device and a trace module that records actual process values after the trace module is triggered. The actual process values are permanently stored on the permanent storage media in form of files in a standard file format. The device makes it possible to permanently store actual process values recorded by a trace functionality, in particular by a trace module, in the device for controlling drives in a standard data format.

14. A system for controlling drives of machine tools or production machines, comprising:
-
a supervisory controller including a motion program; a plurality of devices connected with each other or with the supervisory controller, each of the devices including a trace module, wherein the trace modules are triggered synchronously by an event in one or more devices and record actual recess values after being triggered; a permanent storage medium associated with the devices and storing externally generated process reference values in form of files in a standard format; and an evaluation unit comparing the process reference values with the actual process values of the devices and evaluating the actual process values using evaluation functions, wherein the actual process values are permanently stored on the permanent storage medium in form of files having a standard file format. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
