摘要:
A method and system for monitoring a mandrel. A first plurality of transmitting devices is positioned with respect to the mandrel. Signals from a portion of the first plurality of transmitting devices are received at a receiving device. The signals are processed to determine a configuration of the mandrel.
摘要:
The invention relates to a chucking device (2) and the control device (1) thereof, which has a control unit (15), which is connected to the clamping unit (2). The control unit (15) has a parameterization device (17) having a user guide having one or more input masks (26) for inputting tool data and chucking sequences and optionally workpiece data and also contains a communication unit (19) and an interface (23) for connecting an input device (12). The control unit (15) has a programming device (16) for the independent preparation of at least one control program using the input data.
摘要:
A computer-implemented method is provided for determining spatial locations of element fixturing points on a part to be manufactured. A model and a constraint volume for the part are retrieved, both comprising geometric representations respectively defining the boundary of the part and a region defined about the boundary of the part. Locations on the boundary of the part are identified against which to contact a plurality of fixture elements that are affixed to a base plate, each identified location being both reachable by at least one fixture element and situated where that fixture element will not interfere with a manufacturing tool's approaches to the part. A plurality of potential configurations are evaluated as exhibiting form closure over the part when fixtured by a select plurality of the fixture elements in contact with the part at the identified locations comprised in each of the potential configurations.
