为提高虚拟制造环境的精度，提出了一种新的集成仿真方法。虽然机床仿真和工厂仿真的虚拟制造在早期工厂开发中经常使用，但这两种技术都是单独研究和实现的。本文主要研究机床或主动轴的实时仿真在制造系统中的应用，以及该仿真能力与虚拟制造环境的集成。利用真实机床控制器实时生成机床级仿真结果，并将仿真结果馈送到虚拟制造环境中。为了集成这两种仿真技术，采用系统级软件作为通信平台。这种系统级软件最初是为了控制和配置整个制造系统而开发的。该方法已在全尺寸机床试验台上成功实施。结果表明，该方法使虚拟制造环境朝着提高工厂级仿真精度、减少建模工作量和扩展机器级仿真功能的方向发展。
This paper presents a new integrated approach for simulation developed to improve the accuracy of virtual manufacturing environments. While machine tool simulation and virtual manufacturing for factory simulation have been frequently used in early stage plant development, each of these technique has been researched and implemented separately. This paper focuses on the utilization of real-time simulation of machine tools or active axes in manufacturing systems and integration of this simulation capability with virtual manufacturing environments. Machine-level simulation results are generated in real-time with a real machine tool controller and are fed to a virtual manufacturing environment. To integrate these two simulation techniques, system-level software is utilized as a communication platform. This system-level software was originally developed to control and configure whole manufacturing systems. The method has been successfully implemented within a testbed with full-scale machine tools. The results demonstrate that the proposed method advances the virtual manufacturing environments toward improved accuracy of factory level simulation, reduced effort for modeling and expanded functionality of machine-level simulations.
