Industry - University Cooperative Research: INC/CNC Machin-ing -- Simulating, Planning, Systems & Sensors

数控（NC）机床是其中最重要的 自动化工厂的组成部分。 还有许多研究工作要做 在他们充分发挥潜力之前， 四项工作 在这方面，将完成。 第一，3轴模拟器 将完成并测试NC/CNC加工。 它将作为一个 编程和调试辅助，用于自动程序验证，以及 指导几何造型系统的进一步设计。 第二、 一个用于加工过程自动规划的系统将 开发 要解决的问题是用一种 一组加工过程，使用几个设置。 第三，计算机 数控机床系统将进行研究，以确定 如何最好地分配计算能力。 第四，任务 旨在将测量探头的软件放在 机器控制器，与机器驱动软件在一个单独的 电脑

Numerically controlled (NC) machine tools are among the most important components of automated factories. Much research remains to be done with them, however, before they reach their full potential. Four tasks in this connection will be completed. First, a simulator for 3-axis NC/CNC machining will be completed and tested. It will serve as a programming and debugging aid, for automatic program verification, and for guiding the further design of geometric modeling systems. Second, a system for automated planning of machining processes will be developed. The problem to be tackled is making prismatic parts by a group of machining processes, using several setups. Third, computer numerically controlled machine systems will be studied, to determine how the computing capabilities can best be distributed. Fourth, a task on sensors is aimed at putting software for gaging probes within the machine controller, with machine-driving software in a separate computer.
