A method including a bend angle calculation step of calculating a bend angle θ at each connecting point of a broken line which is obtained by successively connecting a predetermined plurality of machining points P1 to P3 by line segments, an approximation curve derivation step of deriving an approximation curve L5 closer to the connecting point the larger the bend angle θ calculated by the bend angle calculation step, and a tool path generation step of generating a tool path PA7 along the approximation curve L5 derived by the approximation curve derivation step.
摘要:
A tool path generation device for machining a workpiece with a machine tool including a reading and interpreting portion which reads out a tool path from a machining program, a target coordinate value calculating portion which sets a plurality of target points at equal intervals on the read out tool path, and a curve approximation calculating portion which generates a tool path based on the plurality of target points, so as to obtain a smooth machined surface without formation of step differences between adjacent tool paths.
摘要:
The objective of the present invention is to generate a new tool path quickly by means of a simple calculation formula without calculating an approximated curve and the like. A tool path is generated with procedures that include: a distance calculation procedure, whereby one of the processing points (Pi) on a multiple rows of tool paths (PA) obtained by connecting multiple prescribed processing points sequentially with straight lines is set as a revision processing point (Pt), points on the multiple rows of tool paths in the vicinity of this revision processing point (Pt) are set as distance calculation points (Pu), and the distance (L) from the revision processing point (Pt) to each of the distance calculation points (Pu) is calculated; an extraction procedure, whereby the distance calculation points (Pu') for which the distance (L) calculated by the distance calculation procedure is within a prescribed value (”L) are extracted; a mean value calculation procedure, whereby the mean values of the position data for the distance calculation points (Pu') extracted by the extraction procedure and the position data for the revision processing point (Pt) are calculated; and a data revision procedure, whereby the position data for the revision processing point (Pt) is revised by means of the mean values calculated by the mean value calculation procedures, and a new tool path (PA') is created on the basis of the position data for the revised processing point (Pt').
